HDTV Antenna

[nick2003]

Hey everybody, Im looking to buy a good hdtv antenna, The farthest station looks like about 27 miles and im in a basement will i be able to use one there or will i need to bring it upstairs? I really want an indoor antenna i dont want to get on the roof. Will any of these at bestbuy work? http://www.bestbuy.com/site/olspage.jsp?id=cat08084&type=category
I want to get one around here somewhere not really into ording online. Thanks

You may have a problem in a basement. Your probably surrounded by cement walls and steel support beams. The best bet is a outdoor antenna. If any of your digital locals are VHF forget the basement antenna. Try this link for local information.

If in doubt try the antenna. Best Buy is great as far as returns.
