So I officially cut the cord today! I'm extremely excited about all the cost savings, about $150 a month! So I decided that I wanted to build my own antenna to continue the savings... I built a single bay bowtie antenna, which actually works really well. Right now I'm getting the following channels:
8-1: HD
8-2: Good
8-3: Pixelated
43-1: Good
43-2: Good
59-1: HD
67-1: Good
67-2: Good
67-3: Good
I'm trying to figure out the best approach for improving the antenna to get additional channels. The main channels that I want to be able to get with at least good quality are:
30.1 (NBC)
49 (PBS)
61.1 (Fox)
Here's a link to my TV Fool report:

Should I get an amplifier for my antenna? Build a second bay? I have all the materials and was considering building a second bay in any case but was interested to know what some people who had been in this situation before thought.
