Now, believe it or not, I recently purchased one of those 'el cheapo' 360 degree 'pre-amplified' chinaman antennas :

for use in my pop-up camper when I do leaf-peeping camping trips (can't miss my Sunday football)....just for sh*ts and giggles, I threw it on a 8' pole and connected the thing to my laptop tuner - wow - almost all the red stations came in crystal clear except for one - WXXA (channel 7) -- although the signal strength meter showed the station call letters and pegged full strength, the output for the station was blank - I figured there was some sort of glitch in the 'pre-amp' - a drop-out for that frequency of some sort.
To be quite honest, before I tested that little antenna, I had not given thought to installing an antenna on the house -- I had figured that I was completely out of reach of any of the new HD digital signals (I had understood the reception properties were much less than the old analog SD signals)
Now I know different
