I am no EE, but I have seen paperclips deliver 20 HDTV channels via wired connection - a simple coax cable...but I can maybe see that it is more complex, and the article I linked did talk about a wierd system of 5 boxes spaced in a room to deliver the OTA signal to a wireless network.
You need to get out of the city more often.
I am 50 miles from the nearest transmitter, for me it takes #1, 20ft long antenna, #2, high gain, low noise antenna preamp, #3 20ft of pipe, #4 quad shield RG6 (as short as possible), #5 antenna rotor, #6 low noise amplified antenna coupler (amplifies and splits the signal for multiple ports).
About $400 in the parts above just to get 20 digital channels.
To think I used to get 40+ analog channels using a set of rabbit ears :S :M
