UPDATE: Need better antenna

UPDATE

I'm still getting good reception on most channels (probably about 20 of them) but on about 2 or 3 channels the reception can be unreliable: occasionally we will get the little digital rectangular boxes and image freezing for several seconds at a stretch. So we're thinking of getting a better antenna than the HD7000R. It still needs to be relatively inconspicuous ...we don't want to go to a very big -highly visible- antenna but if we can get something a little larger we'd like to do that.

We're still using a pre-amp (ordered from SolidSignal). I'm assuming that the pre-amp is not the problem - ie that if the preamp failed I would see a very big difference in reception. We think that what we're seeing on these few channels was probably there from the beginning but we didn't notice it because it we weren't watching those channels so much at the beginning.

Please advise.
