I provided all the details in my original post...

abc - yellow/vhf - 276 degrees - 23 miles
cbs - green/uhf - 293 degrees - 28 miles
nbc - red/vhf - 289 degrees - 25 miles

What affiliates are these? We need to look up the DT channel #, power, and antenna height.

Not sure of your exact powers but I installed an outdoor CM4228 and have no issues with the DT channel 8 signal at 30 miles.

The CM4228 performs well at RF 13.

yes

I will not put up an outdoor antenna, I would possibly put one in the attic but due to certain issues here I cannot mount one outdoors

All you can do is try... get the biggest gain antenna you can get. You'll need it in the attic.

If you are mounting in an attic be sure to pay attention to the dimensions. No sense in buying one that you can't use. you amy want to investigate an inexpensive indoor antenan though to see if it si adequate. If not just return it.
