Hi All
I want to move to OTA andfwwd my Media center with a HD home Run.
What set up should I get. I can go on the Roof or in the attic. I have a DTV Dish on the roof and would like to use that mount if possible.
Here is my report.

My experience with the HD HomeRun has been quite positive. I would recommend an antenna such as the Winegard HD7694P, aimed at about 46° compass.

You should not need an amplifier. Many amplifiers would be overloaded in your situation.
The HD769X series antennas are combination UHF / High-VHF antennas. They are designed to receive real channels 7 through 69.
