You should place the antenna as high as you can, maybe in the attic? In The Villages, you should have an amplified directional antenna, mounted 20 to 30 feet above ground level. In Village of Springdale my home is 65 miles from the Orlando antenna farm at Bithlo Florida. A suitable antenna and mount can be found on Amazon for less than $50. Do your scan at night for best results. I get 70 or more channels, with few pixelization issues except for channel 24, PBS Orlando.
