Advise/suggestions needed for antenna

Hi there,

Yet another person looking to cut the cable.
My report is as follows:

SW Fl location.

I have an old in-ground (cement pad) antenna for mounting. The only problem being that the second section is frozen solid and no matter what I do I can't seem to free it. I have dumped almost a can of PB Blaster down it and other things but it just will not break free. So I can only get the third topmost section to telescope, makes it bit wobbly if I go too far and with our summer storms... I can get up about 20 feet or so, just beyond the crest of the roof.

Another point to note is that I have the dreaded FL pines directly to the North.

I would be open to some sort of attic antenna of course if that would be doable but the fact that I seem to be in the middle of signal areas and some good distance away has me concerned.

Thanks in advance for any and all advise/suggestions/possibilities!

Still reading and trying to learn all the great info on this site.
