While we are at it, can you tell us the make and model of the TV you're testing with?

If you're location is like the majority of the NW, you have some fairly substantial trees near your home. This can force you to use a larger antenna and/or put some added effort into finding a mounting solution that helps overcome the obstruction.

Based on your report, one would hope that a modest indoor antenna would be adequate. My local experience includes the use of large 'deep fringe' antennas in situations that appeared to be like yours.

Will you consider a mid to large size antenna, mounted outside if the need is proven?
