Just thought I'd provide an update for those who were kind enough to offer some advice. I went up into the attic today to measure for the HBU55 that pamajestic recommended. While I was up there, I decided to hookup an old combo antenna that used to be on the roof (I really want this to work in...

Thanks for pointing this out. When I looked at the HDB8X on another site last night I noticed it was only rated for 25 miles for VHF. ..so I was already worried about that. The HBU55 on Craig's list looks like a steal. Only downside is that it will be pretty ugly mounted outside. Not that I...

So I'll be ordering the antenna that FTA4PA recommended along with the Winegard LNA-200 pre amp. Sounds like it's doubtful that the attic install will work though. Is there any point in buying 2 if the antennas and trying to gang them together? Or would that just wasting my money?

That's correct. I'll be happy if I can just get the major networks out of Baltimore. And my goal is to distribute the signal throughout the house for the TVs that don't have satellite boxes and as a backup for those that do. So having a rotator in the mix seems like it would be a pain.

Great. Cheaper than I expected too. I'll give that one a shot. Hopefully it will work from the attic. The last antenna I had was struck by lightening and destroyed everything in the house. The little grounding cable never stood a chance. :)

Yes, that looks correct. Thanks!

Sorry for just including the last part of the TV Fool url. I can't figure-out how to avoid it being flagged as spam. :)

Trying to decide what type of antenna would be the best fit for my location. Here's my TV Fool report: ?option=com_wrapper&Itemid=29&q=id=8e03cd0c2f73f0 I actually did have a directional antenna here many years ago but I'd like to avoid having to use a rotator again if possible. I'll be...
