Certainly Myth is not a "one-time project", it is the diametric opposite.
But aiming an antenna, which is what the question was about, should be a
one-time thing, unless the transmitters move or a major windstorm moves
your antenna.
In fact, if you know your own location (perhaps using GPS), and also
know where the transmitters are, you should be able to aim a VHF/UHF
antenna well enough without a SLM (also the subject of the question).
The exceptions being when you have to compromise to get good reception
from transmitters at different locations, or you have major multi-path
problems.
Once your antenna is locked down you can go back to the eternal task of
tweaking Myth :-)
