I'm a bit confused. I thought that if I go with some cheap antenna that I'd be setting myself up for failure with the attic mount? I figured if I went with a good quality antenna that surpasses the distance requirement (to adjust the fact that some signal will be lost thru the attic) that it would give me the best shot at success?
If that's the case, that a cheap antenna could work just as well, what about the GE Attic Mount antenna? It's rated for up to 60 miles and it's HD/VHF/UHF. Got some good reviews on the Walmart site....they sell it in the store for $40. If it didn't work, I could just return it and go with the RCA.
