I would recommend that you check out the Terk line of antennas:
www.terk.com
I have not used their indoor models, but did use one of their outdoor models
(Terk-50??) and it worked very well.
BTW, I have a Terk TV-42 (for use on a Sat. dish) that I am not using. If
anyone wants it (for free), contact me off list.
I second that recommendation.
I have their HD/VHF/UHF indoor model -- looks really space age -- and it works far and away better than any other indoor antenna I've ever used. (I think that is the only indoor model they currently offer.) It does do an excellent good job of picking up all the local HD broadcasts. However, it is highly directional and you need to "re-point" it for each transmitter.
Obviously, it works best if you can point it "north" through a window, but the buildings in most of the area are not an issue... even the Hi-Rises at 45th and Market do not interfere with my reception on Chestnut Street.
I picked up my antenna at Tweeter at 15th and Walnut last fall... $29.95 I think.
One of the really neat tricks -- there is a map of compass coordinates for the HD transmitters in Roxborough on one of the HD info sites. Since all the antennas for a given station are on the same tower, you can use that map and a compass to orient your antenna for best reception.
