Is it feasible for me to receive OTA Local channel?

Hey there,
I need some help in "deciphering" info that I receive from TVfool
here is my TVfool result:
http://www.tvfool.com/?option=com_wr...9fbe9aaf280e1f

Long story short, my directTV provider can't provide me with any of the local station (ABC, FOX, NBC & CBS) due to my location (opelika, al). So a friend of mine suggested a DTV antenna and asked me to check my location in antennaweb.org and I did. Based on Antennaweb.org, my location does NOT show any local digital stations. later, I came across tvfool.com, and behold, now my location shows a promising result. I see some local stations in the range of 33-62 miles (yellow range).

My question is, based on the TVfool result, can I really receive those local digital stations (ABC, FOX, NBC, CBS) with outdoor antenna (mid or long range antenna)? or am I missing something? I google some antenna, and came out with a couple of antennas such Antennadirect clearstream5/DB series or the long range winegard.

Any advice is really appreciated before I start shopping and end up disappointed

Thank you so much
