Up on the roof


I want to do my own antenna install. I have paid professionals to do it twice, and it wasn't completely correct either time. But how to do it safely? I have two stories plus attic, with a steeply sloped roof (way too steep to stand on).

How have people done it (safely)?

Mine is in the attic. Works fine if you don't live in the middle of nowhere. In theory the roof can reduce the gain, but this is pretty small in my experience.

This also assumes you don't need a rotor. All my stations are basically north. I've occassionally manually moved it to listen to a particular station elsewhere, and just moved it back to north later. I use a compass for direction.
