True, other than multipath may be more of a problem, therefore a more
directional antenna in close range and more careful tuning of direction in
general may be necessary.  Also, may ATSC transmissions are not yet at full
power, so you may need more gain than typical UHF reception.

In a case like 80 miles out, you will likely need the most gain and the
highest install that you can get.

You can check the site http://antennaweb.org/ for details about the
locations of transmitters in your area.

Whatever you've been using for "good" reception for the past 30 years will
work good.
