Hey everyone,

Just bought a house and finally cut the cord. According to this report (http://www.tvfool.com/?option=com_wrapper&Itemid=29&q=id%3de1c6ae83cfbec7), I should theoretically get quite a few OTA channels. I could likely get by with an indoor HDTV antenna, but I'm an overachiever and have spent the past couple of weeks researching roof and attic mount antennas to attempt capturing most of the signals on the list.

However with 4 different directions from which signals are broadcast around here, it's looking like my best bet is to get the biggest omnidirectional roofmount I can afford and hope for the best. Any suggestions on models/brands/etc would be great. Budget is around $100 or so (not including mounting hardware, amps, etc).
