Antenna Help for Zip Code 99324

Postby sandra0411 on Thu Aug 12, 2010 4:40 pm

I recently moved to southeastern Washington State. I live on the upper floor of a two-story 4-plex apartment building and have written permission from the landlord to attach a television antenna to the outside of the building. I would be the only tenant using the antenna feed. My television is about 5 years old and is not HD -- my location is approx. 45 miles east of one set of "local" stations and approx. 150 miles southwest of a larger metropolitan area.

Any advice you might have as to the best outdoor antenna for my location would be greatly appreciated. I look forward to getting away from the local cable company if at all possible.

Thank you for your time and your help!

Sandra

Your area has all of the major network stations available within 35 miles, and, additionally, you have MANY translator stations in the area that bring in signals from other major metropolitan areas. A roof-mounted antenna like a Winegard HD-7696P or an AntennaCraft HBU-44 plus an antenna rotator will get you more TV reception than you ever dreamed of...LOL
