Thanks Stephanies,
I ended up buying the RCA ANT751. It was on sale for $45 at Amazon. I'm going to try attaching it to the side of my house right near the roof. Hopefully the condo association board (which I'm a part of) doesn't notice.. or care.
In terms of signal quality, when I had the channel master in the second floor bedroom, setup by the window, the signal quality was between 70% and 100% for WCAX-DT, WPTZ-DT, WETK-DT, WVNY-DT. However, WFFF-DT didn't get picked up at all.
Hopefully, with the better, directional antenna, set up outside, pointed directly at those stations, I can get close to 100%.
It does sound like those trees in my way can cause some variability.... I'll have to see.
I'll let you know the results once the antenna comes in the mail and I have time to set it up.
