Were do I start?
I have one HDTV with built in digital tuner and two analog TVs with no digital boxes.

Your local Jacksonville stations are very strong where you are, but you are going to have 3 VHF digital stations in your area. I suggest using a Winegard HD-7694P antenna mounted on your roof and aimed at approx. 35 degrees from your location. You have enough signal in the air that you can run 3 or 4 TV sets without an amplifier if you use a high-quality 1 gHz or better splitter.

What stations are available with HDTV in area 02324? Thanks

See the attached chart; you have Providence and Boston available easily to you with a decent antenna. Use a good VHF-high-band + UHF antenna like a Winegard HD-7396P mounted on your roof plus a rotator like a Channel Master 9521a rotator so you can turn the antenna to aim at the different cities. You have better than 20 stations available to you over-the-air

I live in Jacksonville, FL zip code 32256 however I also live in an apartment. I need advice on an indoor antenna or an outdoor antenna for my first floor apartment. Does any one have a suggestion?

I am wanting to drop my dish network and set up an antenna for a hdtv but we live in southwest mo (65656) which is very tree covered and lots of rolling hills by a lake, will we get good reception?
