Thanks for the reply! That's a bit bigger than we were looking at but that's why we came to you guys. I'll make a mock-up of it later today to see how it fits amongst the eves.

I have a few more questions if you don't mind. Does the antenna need to be grounded even though it's in the attic? And, we have the HTPC hooked up to an APC Back-UPS Pro 1000. This has a coax input on it supposedly for filtering/surge suppression (info from website below). Would hooking up the coax be a good idea, or would it drop the signal too much and not give any real value?

Surge Protection and Filtering
Surge energy rating 354 Joules
Filtering Full time multi-pole noise filtering :5% of IEEE surge let-through : zero clamping response time: instantaneous
Data Line Protection Network line - 10/100/1000 Base-T Ethernet (RJ-45 connector), Coaxial cable for CATV/SATV/modem/Audio-Video (coax connector)
