I find that once you can clear the roof, you're a lot better off than even
being even with it, noticeably.

Subject: Re: antenna mounting question
I'd certainly investigate the opportunity. My current vhf/uhf
antenna is mounted to the air conditioner enclosure outside the house
and the performance is barely acceptable. Twenty or so feet up would
be a nice advantage. Use the best coax you can afford.
Good luck.
