    DISH and OTA HD...which antenna?

    I can pick up a squareshooter off ebay for less than $100. I think I might try just one to make sure it works. I would rather waste $100 than tackle all that diplexing myself. How well do you think a squareshooter would work inside the house? Thanks for the info.

    DISH and OTA HD...which antenna?

    The problem I have with the antenna in the attic is getting the signal to each receiver. I have 3 dual tuners in the house so there are 6 feeds from the dish, and all the wiring is on the inside. So I would have to figure out a way to get the OTA signal to each DVR. Thants why I was...

    DISH and OTA HD...which antenna?

    If the squareshooter works real good, can it be piggybacked to my dish and diplex the signal to my receivers?

    DISH and OTA HD...which antenna?

    Not really an old antenna. House was built in 2003, we just moved in this past summer, so its probably a 75 ohm unit already? What is a good preamp for an antenna like this? Would the squareshooter be better than what I have? Even if the square shooter was inside? What about the sharpshooter?

    DISH and OTA HD...which antenna?

    One side question. What about a Winegard square shooter? Says the UHF range is 50 miles. Can the squareshooter be inside or does it have to be outside?

    DISH and OTA HD...which antenna?

    Just remembered the previous owner had an antenna up in the attic, it is a winegard ws 1964. Will this unit bring in the channels I need? If so, great, now all I have to do is run a coax from it to the rec. Could it be that easy???

    DISH and OTA HD...which antenna?

    What kind of range will that still pull in UHF? I am about 30 miles from the towers. Does it need to be in a window? Or can it be put anywhere in the TV area?

    DISH and OTA HD...which antenna?

    This is the one I tried, but couldnt get any signal strength on the 622 meter. Is this just not a strong enough unit? http://www.walmart.com/catalog/product.do?product_id=2625059

    DISH and OTA HD...which antenna?

    DISH does not broadcast my locals in HD, even though the station emits an HD signal from the local tower. I am in Cedar Rapids IA. Does anyone know when DISH will send these local signals in HD? I would like to be able to watch my locals in HD. My tv is a DLP that is HD ready, not built in. My...
