Hi all, I'm hoping to get help in finding the best indoor antenna or small outdoor antenna for my particular location. I hope I add the details of my report here. http://www.tvfool.com/?option=com_wrapper&Itemid=29&q=id%3d67d9159709c13a

I'm in Largo, Md, a suburb of Washington, DC, actually it's the home of the Washington Redskins Stadium, if that helps any, maybe someone's familiar with the area. I'm in a ground floor apartment with patio, so maybe I could use a smaller outdoor, but my preference would something indoors. I'd be grateful for all help provided. Thanks ferg

Indoors, a Terk HDTVi would be my suggestion. http://forum.tvfool.com/showthread.php?t=2828

Outdoor installation of the compact RCA ANT-751 would offer more reception options. The Winegard HD7000R is wider but still relatively compact. It would offer support for reception of WIAV and WDCN, a couple of low power analog signals offering non-English language programming.

WIAV-LP 4 is transmitting as Analog UHF 58 and Digital UHF 44 , UHF 44 shows up in the digital channel tvfool radar report. And here is information about WIAV , it looks like a English language Asian channel , http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/WIAV-LP. WDCN-LP 6 Analog tv is transmitting as a Spanish Radio station. , http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/WDNC-LP. W22DA digital channel 3 is Three Angles Broadcasting.

On the patio can a outside antenna be aimed at about 299 degree magnetic compass or will the building block the reception?? What side of the building is the patio on??
