TV Fool Report

I bought this antenna months ago to test the waters, had no clue about anything at the time (http://www.amazon.com/Eagle-Aspen-Dt.../dp/B000GIT002) Now I realize of course that is only UHF, and most of my channels are the VHF.

Pointing antenna SE from my location.

Currently:
13.1, 13.2 good to very good.
17's good at night
35's good.
Nothing below 13 at all.

I picked up an RCA pre-amp at menards, just to test (can easily return). That helped, but still nothing below 13...

I am interested in the networks Fox, NBC, CBS, ABC.

I am looking at an outside gable mount about 15ft or so up, pretty short cable run, maybe 35 feet total. (I'd like to do chimney mount...but a bit afraid of harming it)

I'd like the smallest, easiest antenna possible.

What pre-amp model? (Seems like Winegard are favored in this forum)

What antenna? CS5? Antennas Direct V21?

Would LOVE to hear suggestions... THANKS!
