I have read mixed reviews for the mohu sky. Most haven't been able to get
the multidirectional part to work but have gotten good results
directionally. If I read your post correctly you are getting both signals
from the north and the south  approximately 40 miles away each direction?
I'm not as concerned about the multidirectional aspect as I am the distance
and obstructions.  Do you have any obstructions?
