I'm looking in to getting an OTA antenna.

Antenna Web shows this for my Digital stations:
* red - uhf WNUV-DT 54.1 WB BALTIMORE MD 117° 21.4 40
* red - uhf WJZ-DT 13.1 CBS BALTIMORE MD 118° 21.4 38
* red - uhf WMAR-DT 2.1 ABC BALTIMORE MD 118° 21.4 52
* red - uhf WMPB-DT 67.1 PBS BALTIMORE MD 95° 13.6 29
* red - uhf WBAL-DT 11.1 NBC BALTIMORE MD 118° 21.4 59
* red - uhf WBFF-DT 45.1 FOX BALTIMORE MD 117° 21.4 46
* blue - uhf WMPT-DT 22.1 PBS ANNAPOLIS MD 152° 36.7 42
* blue - uhf WUTB-DT 24.1 UPN BALTIMORE MD 134° 17.5 41
* violet - uhf WUSA-DT 9.1 CBS WASHINGTON DC 195° 33.0 34
* violet - uhf WJLA-DT 7.1 ABC WASHINGTON DC 195° 33.0 39

I'm mainly interested in the Baltimore stations, in which case for Red it says I need a Medium directional Antenna.

My question is, what is a good antenna of this type?

Edit: Forgot to mention this but I would prefer to find an Indoor Antenna for the Attic

I got mine from Warrenelecronics.com Was a little under $40 I believe and works great. I got the 4228. Now I have to get a rotator and I will be all set.

I also have the 4228, but I paid $50 for mine at a local dealer.

I second the fact that it works great. It's proven to be the antenna of choice here in the San Francisco Bay Area. We have lots of multipath due to all of the hills and mountains around here and the directivity of the 4228 seems to help get the signals with no problem. Even though it's a UHF antenna, it also seems to work well for the higher VHF channels. Our NBC HD station is on channel 12, and most of us get it just fine with the 4228.
