I'd be curious about that old antenna on the roof that you mention. Knowing what it is and it's condition makes a great test opportunity for you. I'd start out with it. Old antennas work just as good as new ones if they're in good shape.
What channels do you want? Those to the NE I'd assume.
And no one here will recommend cable unless you can't receive a signal period! Especially as you seem to have an opportunity to tune the major networks plus some for free. Tuned reliably, the quality will be better than cable.
The 8200 is probably more antenna than you'd need, but it'd get the job done, I'm sure.
