I am planning on getting an UHF antenna (probably a Channelmaster 4228 w/ 7777 pre-amp) and mounting it in my attic (~12 ft. high, vinyl siding).
I've read this antenna can pick up VHF-Hi channels also, as well as channels from the rear, which is a plus.
edit:
Altenately I may go with an all band antenna like the Wineguard 8200U, as I just realized some NYC stations are on VHF.

Here is my tvfool report on my address:

Most of the channels I want to pick up are "yellow" so i should be OK.
However, a couple are creeping into the red area and I was wondering if I would have trouble getting these:
ex: WNBC 4.1 and WCBS 2.1
Most of these are comming out of NYC about 40 miles from me here in NJ.
One other thing that concerns me is a big pine tree in my front yard in the direction I am planning on aiming the antenna (grrr).
Any antenna recommendations? Tips? I'd appreciate it.
Thanks,
John
