Have you tried standing on your roof?

Three years ago two guys from look.ca came over here and climbed on my roof. 
then they held a pole in the air and found that they could get good 
reception. If it had not worked, the charge would have been $35 + tax.

They say that the pole is not stable enough for 2-way. They want to put up a 
50 foot ground mast for that.
