what antenna do you guys suggest? if i go with a large outdoor omni-directional is there any reason for a rotator/auto-rotator? i've seen one or two models that have them and i was under the impression that only a directional would need a rotator. any other useful info is also greatly appreciated.

looking at this one - AntennaCraft HDMS9100 Programmable Direction Memory Mini-State TV Antenna (HDMS9100) http://www.solidsignal.com/pview.asp... Antennas&sku=

The Antenna Craft is a good antenna for local strong stations , Your location has weaker stations the Antenna Craft might not receive like WFYI and WNDY. I recommend a Winegard HD7694P antenna with a Antennas Direct CPA-19 preamp , aimed at about 125 degree magnetic compass. This will get you All of the network channels and then some. Here is how to aim antennas , http://www.kyes.com/antenna/pointing/pointing.html. Here are some antenna mounts , http://www.ronard.com/909911.html , http://www.ronard.com/34424560.html , http://www.ronard.com/ychim.html. How many tv's are/will be connected??

How many tv's are/will be connected??

That will work fine for Indy stations. You could add a Y5-7-13 and a channel 11 Jointenna if you have difficulty with WLFI.

There will be two tvs connected. Thanks for the quick responses.

WLFI channel 11 is Very Strong and will be received just fine with the HD7694P antenna. The HD7694P antenna receives channels 7 thru 69.

What kind of splitter would i need to get the best quality for both tv's?

A simple common 2 way splitter will be fine.

It's not a matter of signal strength, it's a matter of signal quality. A mis-aimed antenna causes multipath. If the location is open in all directions you're right, if not, a second antenna is the best solution.

how does this sound? Winegard HD-7696P antenna with Winegard AP 8800 pre-amp. i figured if the 7694 was good then the 7696 would be a lil better, true?. as far as the CPA-19 pre-amp John suggested, it says its only compatible with Clearstream C1, C2, & C4. only reason i choose the 8800 instead. if Tower Guy ends up being correct i can always add a smaller antenna to the same mast correct?
