Neither that antenna, nor mine (YA-1713) will go over big indoors with
the wife. But be careful. There is so much signal coming in on the
back side of my antenna that I needed to do a stagger-stack to keep
Scranton, PA (61mi@293deg) from killing my NYC reception (42mi@98deg).
Believe it or not, Scranton is stronger than NYC. Must be because the
signal from Scranton rolls downhill, while NYC has to go uphill...
The DTV transition moved my co-channel problems from UHF to VHF.

This 5 element VHF ch 7-13 antenna works great for me in Loveland, OH
aimed out through the gable of the house towards a rising hill for the
two Cincinnati VHF channels, 9 (10) and 12 (12). They also make a 10
element.

Thanks John. Gives me hope that a better VHF antenna will do the trick.
I'll be doing some browsing.
