No problem - not a priority channel.

then you can go with either the Antennacraft HBU family of antennas or the Winegard HD769xP family of antennas. Your choice of small, medium, or large versions of these antennas depend on how far down into the "red" channels you want to go.
Okay - bigger is better. But I'm hoping to minimize any potential eyesores for my neighbors ... any of these antennas clock in at under 7 feet long (boom) and have good reviews or known to be particularly good models in any TVFools' experience?

I'm currently leaning toward:
-Winegard HD7594P (65" boom) - $60 shipped from Amazon.com
-With a pre-amp (channel master 7777 or something different like the Winegard AP-8700 U/V?)
-On a minimal outdoor mount/mast (will this 75cm J-mount/mast work?)

That would cost $117 and should do the trick (assuming the shorter antenna can get it done), right?

Thanks again and again!
