I bought an antenna
http://www.rca.com/product/viewdetail/1,2588,PI45474-CI209,00.html for
~$25 after pricematching to WM
http://www.walmart.com/catalog/product.gsp?product_id=2153142 . It was
on BB and CC's website but no longer appear to be. It is "HDTV
approved" and has a 3-way switch that bypasses the cable through it as
well as amplifying OTA beautifully. The only downside that one might
have is the switch is tiny (need to use finger nail) and you'd have to
get off the couch to change between Cable and HDTV. Also, the
"integrated cord" is only 3' and not as high quality as this
wannabe-hdtvphile would like. OTA signal still comes in with the
switch on Cable, but the cable signal does not come in at all when the
OTA is amplified.
Hope this helps
Sorry for the long wait, since I'm only 5 miles away from the HDTV tower
in my area (and I get >100 signal for all stations) I didn't want to
endorse the antenna too much, but I just tried getting a signal that is
out of my viewing area based on zap2it labs (22.7 miles) nor does it
show on antennaweb.org for my location. But being a WB station I thought
it should come into view OTA and after googling I found the freq, ran
dtvsignal on it and got ~86, I would highly recommend this antenna!
