I am cutting the cable. I have tried before at another home but didn't research what I was doing and had poor results. I have been reading around for about a week now. Originally I hoped to mount in my large attic. I am surrounded by trees and I'm pretty sure that from what I have read I just need to ahead and get an antenna up as high outside as I can go. I live in the country on eight acres so there is no problem with this. I had just hoped to not see the antenna. Here are my tvfool results.

I am mostly concerned with picking up the major networks. So far I am considering the Clearstream 2v and the Wineguard HD7697. I will send the signal to three TVs with cable runs of no more than 40' to 50'. Looks like I will mount on a tripod or chimney mount unless the attic would work. I will also just tap into the Dish cables that are already running to each tv. I assume I won't need an amplifier but if so, a recommendation would be appreciated. I would appreciate any advice on antenna selection, attic or outside. I would also not be opposed to a multiple antenna setup to get the best results. Thanks again.
