Advice needed

Hello everyone,

I recently lost my DC locals on Dish Network. I am looking into installing an antenna to regain them. Fox 5 WTTG channel 36 is the main station I need to receive (Washington Redskins football). Would it be possible to receive that station from 70+ miles out? If so, what antenna would you recommend? Would there be anything else I need?

My signal analysis is : http://www.tvfool.com/?option=com_wr...b7c81851bb6573

This is all new to me, so any help and advice will be greatly appreciated.

Thanks

Sorry, but it's unlikely you will be able to receive WTTG from so far out. The mountains are blocking the signal. The terrain between WTTG and your place is shown here:
