Hi,
A few weeks ago I finally convinced the wife to cut the cable, now happily saving over $170/month.
I went to my local Radio Shack, and picked up the only Outdoor Antenna they had in stock, An Antennacraft HDX1000. I mounted it on the roof facing SE, directly in between Boston and Providence. I'm in Northbridge MA. The stations are mostly around 27 Miles away. I get a total of roughly 60 channels. Unfortunately, They're all a little choppy, some more than others depending on which way I turn the antenna.
I want to get all the major channels, FOX, NBC, ABC, CBS, PBS, and CW. My issue is my house is surrounded very tall oak trees. The antenna I have now is on my roof, about 25 FT off the ground pointed directly into trees roughly 15 feet away. I don't think mounting it on a mast is much help either, the trees go over my house by roughly 30-40 feet. There's no where on my property to get away from the trees. The only option is right through them
I'm looking for opinions on a good antenna to get. I believe I'm close enough to the towers that I should be able to get what I want, but I'm not really sure. Here's my

Any insight would be most appreciated
