We are very happy with our outdoor professionally installed antenna
(AntennaCraft HBU33). Because of HOA requirements it is discreetly
located on our 2 storey roof (zip 87507) and not visible from the
street. We receive H/SDTV from all the major channels (2, 4, 5, 7, 9,
13, 19, 50) and some. We used to play a lot with orienting and
positioning different amplified indoor bunny ears but thankfully no more
and no more dropout either. I now think they were a waste of time but
I'm sure performance will vary. BTW there are no such things as HDTV
antennas just antennas good at receiving the carrier signals.

Yes. I have a pair of passive rabbit ears hanging on the wall of the
bedroom and the TV is getting 16-20 digital channels from 6-7 UHF
transmitters, depending on orientation and deployment of the rabbit
ears. The VHF channels, ABC, CBS, and the UNM station, aren't coming
in. But that's a typical rabbit ear problem. I suspect I can build
some dipoles on the ceiling pointed at Sandia Crest that will work
better.

Nice! Thanks. So I definitely should play with this a bit.
Have you tried using just an antenna at your house?

The station finder at http://www.tvfool.com
<http://www.tvfool.com/> says that an address close to yours,
picked off google maps, has line of sight to 27 TV broadcast
transmitters, 20 of them digital stations which can have
multiple channels multiplexed.
