I recently have decided to finally cut the cord and plan on installing my antenna this weekend, then telling DirecTV to shove it! :p

Could someone please help me out with the best direction to point my antenna?

Antenna: RCA ANT751
Preamplifier: N/A (Should I look at getting one?)
# of TVs: 4
Antenna to splitter: 60-70'

The Tv reception is strong signal strength at your reception location.

For 4 tv's connected install a 4 way splitter.

Picked up 36 channels, all pretty good on reception.

I haven't been able to use the splitter yet, so it's only feeding one TV in the house.

Thanks for the input!
