I just purchased an HDHR. Very cool device BTW. I currently live in the country of Central Illinois. There's an antenna on the top of a mast attached to the house. It's probably above the tree line. The antenna is on a rotor however, the rotor is broken. This is what the antenna looks like.

Anyways. The pointy, narrow tip is currently facing North. I need to turn it South West. However, I don't know if the smaller end faces that direction or the larger (wider) end. Which way should it face? The way that I'm judging the signal strength is by hooking up the antenna feed (which runs through an amplifier, can't remember model or make) into the VCR and tuning to the analog channel and if that starts to come in better, then I'm assuming the digital will come in better as well (since they come from the same transmitter). This is all assumptions and hopes and dreams at this point. AntennaWeb says I should only receive my local FOX station (which I do just fine), but it didn't say anything about the religious channels which I also get. Any help with the antenna anyone could provide would be helpful. Thanks!
