Yes and a cheap set of walkie talkies works best to determine where
the best reception is. Partner watches TV while other one turns mast.

I've actually done that! Charlottesville VA, 105 Deerwood Drive.

Most of the times though we just opened a window and hollard out it.

walkie talkies?

With all the cell phones these days...

And most landline cordlesses come with multiple phones.

Walkies don't use up your cell minutes.

Living in a trailer, my TV is right next to the antenna
mast. I turn the TV around so it faces the window. then I
can rotate the antenna and watch the screen at the same
time.

If I wasn't Mormon, I could also drink a beer, fart, smoke a
cigarette, and pee on the skirting at the same time. Redneck
heaven!
