Sam, I have thinking about the same thing, even if to add to our not-HD wired service. I asked a guy at the Radio Shack in Sherburne Road, about what luck his customers had with digital antennae. He said "Not good". He did say you could buy an antenna from them and try it. If it does not work, return it during the return period.
Hope this helps.
