Cutting cord.....antenna design?

http://www.tvfool.com/?option=com_wr...dfaf28e071a65b

Hello,

First time poster from Metro Atlanta........after 18 years getting rid of DirecTV. Will probably use PlayStation Vue, Sling or DirecTVNow through AppleTV in some capacity to enjoy Foxnews.

I am hoping to build an antenna that will capture my local channels. Not sure, where to start. I made The mistaken of watching some YouTube videos and got a headache and somewhat confused...LOL

Can anyone suggest an antenna to build or a place to learn how?

Thanks,

Patrick

This is where I got my plans from, he makes some of the highest gain antennas you can get.

You do need to follow them with some presion, spacing is critical in any antenna you may make.
