Are there windows or a balcony that face to , east , south east , south?? 'Pending applications included' shows most of the Digital stations are grouped in those directions. Also does the tv have a tuner for the , Broadcast Digital Tv Channels , Not the broadcast analog channels , Not the analog cable channels , Not the digital cable channels??

The number of strong signals available to you argue against the use of an amplified antenna. Many indoor antennas include an amplifier which can not be removed or disabled without destroying the antenna.

The non amplified TERK HDTVi and the Radio Shack #15-1874 are examples of indoor antennas worth considering.

If you have a window with a view SE, a Winegard HD-1080 or FV-HD30 are small enough to 'see' through the window. Though they are 'outdoor' antennas, they would also work well in many situations like yours.
