Go to www.antennaweb.org. They have a utility where you can put in
your address and it will show the transmitters, angle, distance and
recommend what antenna is appropriate. Obviously there is a big
difference where the transmitter is 4 miles away vs 40. Also, I'd
check with neighbors as to what kind of antennas they have. If they
are using large outside ones and you're attempting to use a small
inside one, then that could be an issue.
