Tom...welcome to SWLing.

I've been fooling around with this stuff since the 60s. I'll probably step
on some toes because people seem to become very possessive of their
technologies these days but my experience has been that active antennas,
indoor antennas, power line antennas offer only convenience. None of them
out perform a simple longwire antenna strung up outside. It's not the rocket
science some would you to believe. Just hang a wire between two trees in the
clear and forget about it.

As for TV...the digital conversion was a blessing. We watch no TV now except
old movies on our old set. We're enjoying it much more and don't have to put
up with the moronic "news" coverage and drug ads.

Good luck.
