Unfortunately that probably doesn't help me much.  The required  
antenna would be rather large (if antennaweb.org is to be believed)  
and I'm on the ground floor.  Since the area I live in is sort of  
down in a hole to begin with I think I'd be wasting my money erecting  
an antenna that would have to be less than eight feet in the air.  TV  
signals are line-of-sight and I can't see very far from where I am. ;)
