Antenna question from a complete newbie

Thanks in advance to all the experts that answer my question.

Ok, I am a Directv subscriber that is getting fed up with the ridiculous rate they are charging me and it seems like they are continually nickel-and-diming me to death so I have been thinking about installing an antenna.

I went around and talked to a few neighbors that have had antennas up for a long time and they all tell me the same thing, "Before everything went digital, I was getting 10 channels but now that they've changed over, I only get 3".

Does that make any sense to anyone?

I looked up our area here on tv fool

My location

and can't for the life of me, understand what they mean. Is it simply because they need better/different antennas?

Appreciate any thought others might have and, since I've got your attention, what antenna would you recommend for my area? I have a 20-25' foot pole I can mount it on and of course, a rotating antenna is doable also.

Thanks again to all you experts.
