Here is my tvfools report: http://www.tvfool.com/?option=com_wrapper&Itemid=29&q=id%3dc77a4d5b27ee11

Because all of the channels I want are in the same direction (within 1 degree of one another), I'd imagine a directional antenna would be fine. My issue is that I'm nearly 50 miles away. TVFools seems to think an attic antenna would work fine. Any experts willing to suggest a specific antenna for me to try? Thanks in advance!

I'm not sure if you prefer to attic mount or not... a roof covered in wet snow can easily attenuate the signals by 20 dB and more.

If you are inclined to attic mount, try the Winegard HD7082P

No static at all

I agree with the 7082 antenna recommendation. The antenna will need to be outside to provide reliable reception with those signal strengths.

I agree too.
