 Your heating elements in the ceiling certainly don't help. If you live in the suburbs, then I strongly recommend that you discretely mount an external antenna. You have line-of-sight to strong signals from affiliates for every major broadcast network--and quite a few minor broadcast networks. If you stick with the indoor antenna, then a signal attenuator may help. You may purchase an inline attenuator from 
Amazon.com, variable attenuators from 
Antennas Direct, and 
other reputable vendors. I recommend a variable attenuator.
