This poster is not a fan of Omni Directional antennas.
Winegard Sensar IV with Sensar Pro indoor module. For long range it's hard to beat.. I upgraded my S-III with wingman to an S-IV when I forgot to lower it and .. Well you can figure out the rest... Even that was an upgrade (though there may have been other issues)
The JACK from king controls (The directional one)( will also outperform an Omni but it does not have the range of the Winegard S-IV
one thing though Range and "Beam width" (That is how far off center the distant station can be and still come in) are opposed. More range = Less beam width.
THankfully MOST TV stations tend to "Cluster" Their transmitters.
