Hey Mark...

Have you tried hooking the antenna to the HP, and checking your reception
from inside the shack?  in the GHZ range, sometimes adding a long run of
coax negates whatever signal you'd gain...  my GPS works well in my
basement... and as nasty as it is down there, some days I think I might
need it to find my way through the cobwebs...
