Which Antenna shd I get
Hello All,
I live in Houston and I have Dish TV network and pay 5.99 a month for local channels.
But instead I would like to get a Antenna for local Houston channels as I don't get a particular local channel.
If anyone around Houston area, I m refering to Channel 51 for Astros game.
Can you guys recommend a good antenna?
Thanks.

There's no better value than the Radio Shack indoor double-bowtie antenna. It's incredibly easy to hook up and place for optimal reception, and then you can hide it when you don't need it. It's $17.99 at RS but was recently discontinued so don't delay. RS has easy returns too so if it doesn't work you can always return it and try something more expensive like the indoor Silver Sensor.
But the double-bowtie should work. It's legendary on other boards like avsforum due to its uncanny ability to pull in DTV signals. It gets DTV signals for me from DC (40 miles) and Baltimore (60 miles).
HTH.
