I just purchased a new home and would like to try going OTA and streaming for my TV needs. The previous owner had DirecTV so the plan is to try and use the existing coax, running to 4 TVs. Living along the gulf coast we regularly get storms with heavy winds, so I'd like to try and go with an attic installation as opposed to roof mounted. I have an old set of rabbit ears connected now that I can actually receive channels (going with Real cahnnel numbers here) 39 (which has ABC and now also CBS on a sub-channel), 16 (PBS), and with a little more trouble 48 (Fox, and soon to be NBC on sub).
My goal is to get more consistent reception on these channels (all located to the northeast) but also try and receive some of the New Orleans channels (all to the southwest). So it seems an omni-directional antenna would be best. Although I'm totally new at this and could be way off
I'm looking at the following as an antenna:

Are these good quality, or should I be looking elsewhere for an attic mounted antenna?
Also, I'm assuming a pre-amp would be a good idea for my situation. Would this be a good option for me:

Thanks for any comments and suggestions
