Signal strength for me here is about 30-40% as reported by
the DEC2000-t. I am living on the top floor of an
average-height building and am using an amplified room
antenna. So I'd be pessimistic about your reception unless
you were using a roof antenna or a good amplifier.

Good luck with the driver, though. I have been reading
through Mr. Woods' sources for the past couple hours, and
have lost all hopes of being able to contribute anything. So
I do appreciate your work all the more.

Sincerely,
