You are going to need a deep-fringe antenna if you want to see NBC, FOX and ABC, however, CBS is local, and will be fairly easy to get, even with an indoor antenna. If this was my home, I'd would use a separate VHF and UHF antenna mounted on a rotator so you can see all he possible Tv stations. I would use a Winegard YA-1713 VHF-high-band VHF antenna and an AntennasDirect XG-91 UHF antenna mounted on the same mast, with the XG-91 mounted 3 1/2" above the YA-1713, and both antennas mounted on a Channel Master 9521a rotator. Combine the two antennas using a Pico-Macom UVSJ antenna joiner, and run the output of the UVSJ into a Winegard HDP-269 high-input all channel preamplifier, the mount the power supply for the preamp behind your TV set. This antenna should yield more than 10 TV stations, including all 4 major TV networks and PBS, if you install it properly.

Thank you. I will look for the ones you said. Question; Looking at the picture and reading your answer, does the XG-91 mount 3 1/2 inches or feet above the YA-1713?
Thank You;
