Which model did you order Rich? Omni X or Miltenna Omni?
The Omni-X. I intend it to be used on a wide variety of freqs via a multicoupler.

Well, I ordered an Omni-X and I also ordered all new coax and the ChannelMaster balun. I will try the balun on one of the ST-2's and see how that works out, if it does I will retain an ST-2 in the attic antenna farm. I will let you all know the results!
I just got my tracking number si the antenna should be here late this coming week.
When that arrives I will have everything in place to do the big swap but that is info for another thread...
Here is the balun I use. It is well worth the money.
Outdoor Balun/Matching Transformer Deluxe
The Channel Master CM-3203 Outdoor Balun Matching Transformer Deluxe is an upgraded professional grade balun for any outdoor tv antenna that does not have an integrated balun.www.channelmaster.com
Well last week I replaced the balun on one of the ST-2's with the Channel Master one and, that combined with the new LMR400 coax has made it into a new powerhouse! It works a ton better than before! I did not compare it with the original RG6QS coax or the old balun paired with the new coax but combined they really improved my reception dramatically!
These baluns are out of stock both at Amazon and Channel Master but I am definitely going to order a couple more for future use!
You folks who purchased the Omni X, how’s it going with it? Better or worst compared to what you had? Am considering getting one to replace my outdoor discone.
Are you folks pointing the X toward a tower for better results? I have 4 simulcast towers around me and want to get things right the first time. Will be ordering one next month.
Couldn't wait until next month so ordered just now. Saw one of the radials from my discone was on the ground while cutting grass yesterday so figured it would be a good time to change it. Only have to take it down once.
