Thank you Commtech1 for you reply.
I think I might have not expressed myself clearly though, and since my post, I have continued my research about those antennas and I really think that the info my be outdated on tvfool for my area. I haven't looked yet as to how to report this, but I will check later.
I can confirm from local data, and the CRTC database (Canadian FCC) that the 3 closest antenna to me are less than 20 miles away, closest is roughly about 6 miles from me. So basically this changes my questions a bit, and it would be do you think it's worth trying to find the cheapest antenna that would still work, or since I've found one that works, just stick with it.
I'm not confortable about installing an antenna on the roof, so if I can avoid that, it'd be better, altough I know this is not an optimal setup, I can still get good signal in the attic. Regarding that, I say "good" signal but it only means that I am receiving the 5 channels I am supposed to receive. I don't know (yet) how to measure the strength of the signal...
As for the cable I am using, I don't know, I guess there is something more than just RG6 Coax cables?
From my searches also, seems like those channels are only emitting in UHF, so that's why my question in the first post was should I concentrate on getting a better, yet cheaper antenna than the one I have, but that would be UHF only...
