Hello all,
I am struggling to get any channels from my downtown condo. Let me first start by explaining the layout of our condo. We are located in downtown dallas on the 5th floor of an apartment that is built within a courtyard. The courtyard faces a pool. Our condo faces due north west when I used a compass just now. We are only able to get two digital channels (8-1 and 8-2) which is ABC and some type of ABC accuweather channel, after multiple scans, and trying from many locations. The only way I was able to get the channel was by putting an indoor antenna outside on the patio and using coax cable through the window into the tv in the living room. It only worked AFTER I plugged in the amplifier, which surprised me because everything i've read on this forum says to not use an amplifier if you are in a good location (which I am). The type of Antenna I bought was this

My best guess is we are about 60 feet high on the fifth floor. Also, the only channel I do get (abc) sparks out anytime an airplane flies over (southwest airlines flies by around every 10 minutes.
