Thanks for the advice. Now for my follow-up question.
After talking with a salesman at my local Radio Shack, he recommended the larger antennas from your suggested list. He said the smaller ones often come back (get returned) in our area due to poor reception. If I were to pick the largest antenna that fits in my space in the garage attic and the reception was still not ideal, what would be a suggested amplifier that could be used in conjunction with this type of antenna? Would the Winegard AP-8700 U/V Preamplifier do the trick?
Thanks.
