I need reception help

I rebuilt my server, moved all of the tuners over and everything works great, except for tuning one station

At this point, I'm not sure what to try. I've tried 4 different tuners, (ati-650, haupage 2250 and 1250, and hdhomerun3. I've tried my attic antenna, and a simple T-cable that came with one of the tuners. I've tried turning the antenna 90degrees.

12.1 has always caused problems when it rains (it's oregon, it rains a lot), but now I can't get a decent lock on the station at all. In the source preview, the best I see is 6% strength. Every other station comes in clear with a good signal.

when I removed 6' of coax and moved the antenna into the next room, the signal strength jumps to 70, signal quaulity to 55, and symbol quality to 100, and network rate of 17.5Mbps

of course sage still shows no signal

I live in Portland too. What I did was get a TERK amplified antenna. Then I used the Signal Strength plugin to place my antennae.

I picked up an amplified antenna last week, and now I get channel 12 again. One tuner just doesn't work well, but the other 4 are perfect.
