Thank you for responding.
My fiance's already said no to an outside antenna, but I'll provide a link them anyway...it would really stick out in our neighborhood and worried about the tornado alley we live in, so it's the attic or nothing.

As to the second part of the question, it'll be one tv until next November (Duration of my Direct TV contract), then there'll be a total of four. My plan is to attach the antenna to the cable, in the cable box outside, that runs to all the rooms that have a tv.
BTW, saw this guy: AntennaCraft MXU47 Deep Fringe UHF HD Yagi TV Antenna.
Wonder if it'd work, I don't really care about the VHF.
I suppose my last resort is get an amp, gamble that it'd operate sufficiently during the summer...even with ridge vents, the attic gets really, really hot.
Thanks for any advice.
