Each of the suggestions thus far have merit. The HBU-44 that you are leaning toward is a very capable antenna. During the installation and aiming process. you can easily point it toward some of the weaker alternate market signals. Make some notes re. the signals that are receivable and you'll be able to judge whether they are worth the effort to go after at a later date.

I certainly expect the HBU series antennas to be able to receive stronger signals through the rear. So when aimed at 60 - 65 degrees, I'd expect you to receive WNYO, WGRZ and perhaps WIVB.
