Just cut the cord - need advice

I just cut the cord and am learning about how get OTA.

Here is my tvfool report.

http://www.tvfool.com/?option=com_wr...0b8699b76dac30



I am only interested in the mass of stations that come in from the North/Northwest, and I am particularly interested in making sure I get KNTV 12 as well as possible

I cannot use an outside or attic antenna. I only have one TV, a newer LCD HDTV

From what I have seen, I need a directional antenna with good VHF coverage, but I havent found any indoor antennas of that type.

Any advice?

Thanks

Tv antennas and Tv reception

Explain why you can not put a antenna in the attic or above the roof.

it is not my house . . .

and i dont care enough about optimizing reception to ask the owner for permission.

Also, there is no attic.

Finally, even if the reason were, "I dont want to", what difference does it make? There isnt going to be an antenna anywhere but inside, that's the situation.

So, if you have advice, please direct it accordingly.
