Antenna advice needed

lionheart73 · 12-Feb-2011, 1:08 PM

Hi everyone, looking for some advice. Here is my tvfool report.

I am interested in getting ABC, CBS, NBC, FOX, and CW. Would I be able to receive these and if so what antenna will work. I have a bonus room over the garage so I think that makes my house about two stories high. If possible I would like to hook up 2 TV's

What is the house construction ?? Wood frame with wood siding , plastic siding , Non metalic siding , no foil backed insulation are the best. What is the house construction ?? Is a Tv in the basement??

The stations down to W35CC fairly strong and are LOS= Line Of Sight. I suggest receiving the groups of Tv stations to the north east and south -- south west with a SIMPLE NON Amplified indoor antenna. One of these , http://forum.tvfool.com/showthread.php?t=233 , Read and understand this information about , Real Digital Tv Channels , Virtual Digital Tv Channels , Analog Tv Channels. http://forum.tvfool.com/showthread.php?t=695.

Thanks for the info. The house has a wood frame and vinyl siding an as far as I can tell there is no foil backed insulation. The TV is not in the basement. I have a Tv upstairs in the bonus room and one in a bedroom.
