@Mtt @eddiehinkle I live just outside a major metro (DFW). That website turned out to be overoptimistic about what I could receive with a given antenna type. This was aggravated by the different types of signals and transmission locations in this area. Roof antennas aren’t allowed in our HOA. I determined I need a large in-attic antenna to be able to receive the major network channels OTA. I didn’t pursue this because the main network channels aren’t important to us.

I ended up replacing our DirecTV setup with Playstation Vue (I’m a sports addict) and a stripped down cable package to cover some shows my wife wanted. We’re saving a bit of money. One of the main things I wanted and got out of this is being able to watch any show on any device seamlessly. I can pause a show from PS Vue on the TV and immediately pick it up where I left off on my iPad (or iPhone, or another TV, ...). So I’m not chained to a couch to watch something. I’m a bit ADHD so have trouble sitting through shows. PS Vue has an unlimited DVR which is very helpful if you like long sporting events - it can record any and everything. The PS Vue also allows 5 simultaneous streams which is good because we are a family of 5.
