What do you recommend for me?

It is helpful to provide more information , is this a , house , condo , apt. , mobile home , motor home or etc.?? . The default antenna height is 10 feet , how high up will the antenna be at your location?? What is the construction of the building?? Wood frame with wood or vinyl siding is Ok for Tv reception indoors. Metal siding , metal backed insulation , concrete , bricks , metal roof , solar panels , can reduce or block reception. Also how many Tv's will be connected??

Some people want to receive every possible signal. Others have a list of 'must-have', 'want' & 'don't-care' stations. What's your goal?

Brick house with at least 2 TV's connected. I am wanting to keep the antenna in my house.

Looking to get the top 7 on my list. At this point, I only want and inside antenna.

An inside antenna would be lucky to get several of the first four on the list. I'm pretty pessimistic on that idea.

All-channel antenna is needed and you have signal from multiple directions. It would be work to get the top seven stations with an outdoor antenna on a rotor.

Looking to get the top 7 on my list. At this point, I only want and inside antenna.You are fairly close to the transmission towers for the broadcasts that you want. Your problem is the terrain. The signals are blocked by mountains. As close as you are to the transmission towers, you should be able to pick-up just about anything that you can get with a fairly modest antenna--if it is located in the right place and pointed in the right direction. Three other words--elevation, elevation, elevation! Your best reception may not be adjoining your residence. Walk around your property with a decent, but modest, antenna attached to the end of a long pole. See what you can get outside the shade of trees and what not. You might find that your reception varies dramatically at different locations in the back yard.
