Dear Brian,
I too own a Wellbrook ALA 330S. With this antenna or the ALA 1530 I advocate reading and carefully following the instructions TO THE LETTER with ONE (and this ONE ONLY) exception: pay no attention to the "placement" recommendations. Yes, mounting the antenna outdoors well away from a building (and its associated electrical noise) is "ideal;" in actual practice mounting location is not at all critical. You can mount this antenna anywhere you like - choose the place that is most convenient and practical for you. (Obviously you don't want to DELIBERATELY mount it near a particularly "noisy" electrical source if there are other choices.) I have mine mounted in my attic on a Radio Shack rotator. There it's protected from the weather and let me tell you - it functions better than any antenna with which I've had experience, going back over forty years, and that includes outdoor antennas 100-feet long and longer! Just pick a place, or even experiment until you find the location you like. I wish you the very best of luck with your new antenna. I think you'll love it! Joe |
