Hey guy..im going thru the same thing as you are...and Daniel has been a terrific help..sad but true is the fact that without a outside antenna you arent going to get a good signal..i tried the terk and another RS indoor one..looked like a flying saucer..and im only 5 miles with no obstuctions from the local towers..the terk just plain sucked ..the other was ok but still didnt pull in a strong signal..bottom line is when it gets warm again im running cable outside to a DB-2 from antennas direct..good medium range antenna..and being so close i am going to try it indoors first....good luck, but being so far away from your towers i wouldnt be optimistic on a indoor one..by the way..that DB-2..isnt all that big.. www.antennasdirect.com
