Best Antennas

Since so many folks ask here or in email what the "best" antenna is to get, I thought I would throw up some links I just found. These are from a gentleman who did some testing with different indoor and outdoor antennas and since I know diddley-squat about them antennas I figured it might hlp to redirect folks there.

For Indoor antennas:

I live in the same town as Peter, he is da bomb.
He reviewed my plasma before I bought it.
He said he's about 23 miles form Phila. and that's about right.
Radio Shack doesn't show the 15-1862 on their web-site.???

When you guys test them out let us know how they work.
I wanna try that RS indoor, in the attic, maybe on a rotator if Peter thinks I can get NY channels as well.!
How fat would that be Eagles HD on one channel - Giants HD on the other.!
