[Kanatag]

I would like to know what type of antenna would be best for my location in Kanata, Ontario, Canada.

In the above report I did not specify a number of feet.

Secondly do you have to point an antenna like a Sat dish? If so, what direction?

Any other information or suggestions would be great.

I am tired of soaring cable tv costs!

Thanks!:D
