The no roof antenna is a wife thing - I think that trumps federal law - sorry I should have made that clear.

I picked up a Wineguard Free Vision at Home Depot. At least that makes it for an easy return if needed.

I hung it pretty much in front of the vent gable in the attic and took a best guess at the bearing to point it at. It's a windy rainy night here, but I did a re-scan and where the Leaf would pick up anywhere between 0-10 channels, I now picked up 40.

I have it going into my Electroline EDA UG2402 4 way splitter/amp with only 1 output (I need to still cap the unused outputs). Not sure if that's really needed. I'll have to experiment with that.

So far channel 17.1 is holding with a few periodic drops. I'll have to watch it closely during the return period.

At least it gives me hope I can do this in the attic.

If anyone has small-medium size antenna recs I'd still take those in case it turns out I need something stronger.

thanks for the info.
