Noob looking for Antenna Advice

Hi,

Well like most that end up here as I'm looking to get rid of my satellite in favour of OTA. I really don't watch much TV, but would like to watch the occasional hockey game HD without the monthly bill.

My main issue is that I'm approximately 50 miles from a major city, in a valley and not sure how much I'd have to invest to get it to work.

here's my signal analysis:

Although I'd love to get as many channels as possible my main objective are getting the top 3. (GTN,CTV and CBC)

I tried an indoor Terk FDTV1a and got snowy reception from GTV and CTV, so I'm assuming these are analog signals. My HD TV is in the basement and I'm guessing I may have gotten all three had I been upstairs, but still not digital HD.

I have only two TV's I'd like to connect.

The RG6 from the satellite dish outside goes to both TVs, so should I assume I could use an outdoor antenna and use the RG6 connection?

Any help, advice etc .... would be appreciated...

THanks!
