I live in the northwestern Atlanta area. If you live within the perimeter of the city, you can use an attic antenna if you need to have over 90% signal. But you can get by with a Terk 1080i (has VHF retractable dipoles) antenna pointed towards the cities for a constant 70% or more signal. North of that, though, you will need to send in a signal analysis because of the gradually greater hills, especially in the areas greater than 20+ miles away from the towers. You should try out WANN TV on digital, it has 30 sub channels including movies and radio stations.

Unfortunately, I live in the "signal shadow" of a mountain, so I need a major antenna and an amplifier in order to get the strongest of signals, even though I live just north of Marietta

You won't need to worry much if you want the TBS 26 (Soon to be 14) and WANN 31/32 analog (and Spanish 4 in analog) and you live in the perimeter. They are generally strong enough to come in with good enough signal.
