Hello everyone. I've been searching the forum looking for advice on antennas, but just decided to dive in and ask directly.
Here's my report:

What's important to me:
- I've got an existing DirecTV dish on the SW corner of my house and I'd like to reuse the mount.
- While I know my HOA wouldn't have a case if they argued against it, I'd prefer not to install the typical 1950's looking antenna. First off, I'd be the only one in my neighborhood that has one, and secondly, there's a high-traffic walking path behind my house, so it would attract attention.
- I'd like to receive as many VHF stations as possible, mainly the big 4 broadcast stations (trying to drop DirecTV).
- I'd prefer it if the setup didn't need anything beyond the antenna and an amp if necessary (in other words, no rotator), so if any of the omnidirectional antennas are worth it (MS2002, CM3000), I'd love to hear about them.
That's it. Thanks in advance for any help. I've been tied to the man for too long and can't wait to cut the cable!
