Just wanted to provide an update on this. I purchased the McDoury antenna on Amazon, for $50. Mounted it in the attic pointing it towards Orlando, making sure to position between two joists. Purchased a $20 Coax continuity tested from Amazon as well, so I could easily trace the coax from the point in the house, to the box in the garage.
Had to do some climbing around in the attic to get everything connected, but now I get 50+ channels that never fade/pixelate. I watch all of the broadcast NFL games, local news, classic movie channels, etc. for free. Use internet for the other services (Netflix, ESPN+, Amazon Prime, Fox Nation) that I choose to purchase.
Bottom line, works like a charm. Below are the links for the items I had to purchase to make this work. Go to a website like
AntennaWeb - Antenna Signal Prediction for info on how to point your antenna, you can use the compass on your phone to get it just right!
