So I guess I can't blame DirecTV, but I really want FOX to be in HD, I find sports unwatchable in SD on a HDTV. I don't know much about the tech involved, but if there is a way to get an HD signal to my home I'm willing to do whatever it takes to get it working, and appreciate any help I get along the way...thanks again.

K27FI looks as if it's the easiest signal to receive. It has no predicted adjacent or co-channel interference and the signal levels appear within easy reach of several antenna choices. Given the fact that most of the other signals in the area are facing interference issues, I'd recommend a roof mounted Antennas Direct XG91 aimed due east.

You may want to post another TV Fool report based on the mounting height of a roof top antenna, it's entirely possible that signal conditions may improve to the point that a smaller antenna will suffice.
