Hello
I'm very new to the antenna world; I placed my old 2007 Sony Grand WEGA rear-projection TV in my garage at about 10' above ground level. By connecting a pair of rabbit ears I managed to pull in 8 digital & 1 analog channels; I was surprised at how much digital info is included with each channel! Anway, now I'm looking at pulling in more channels & I'm thinking about putting an antenna in my attic above the garage. Is it worth it to put it in the attic, or should I not bother & go with something outside right away? I've seen all kinds of antennas on eBay, Future Shop, Best Buy, etc. & I'm not really sure what I should be looking for...I also have lots of steel tubing let over from a car shelter; would that be good as a mast &/or antenna? Attached is a link to my report.

Please make a tvfool radar plot report with your Exact address. And a 25 foot antenna height. The 25 foot antenna height is a reference antenna height.

If Exact address does not work then go to the tvfool home page and click on >>Start MAPS<< button , move the pointer to your house and make the antenna height a 25 foot reference antenna height and click on the button that says , make radar plot map , post it here at your thread.

How many Tv's are/will be connected??
