Just an update on using an antenna. I just put one on the roof and found out that It's really not necessary to try and pull in the channels from Orlando. The CBS and NBC affiliates in Orlando have translators or retransmission transmitters in Ocala. if you aim your antenna up to Ocala Channel 2.1 or WESH and channel 6 or WKMG-TV come in without any problem whatsoever. Gainesville ABC affiliate as well as the PBS affiliate from Gainesville also come in fine. Seems that not many people know about these translator stations that were installed for just this purpose. From my location the direction is about 330 degrees. The only "missing" stations that Orlando has are the Spanish and religious ones.
