best possible indoor antenna

The best indoor antenna I ever used, other than the TV antenna in the attic, was the Day Sequerra indoor antenna, easily besting everything else I tried. It wasn't as good as the attic-mounted Antenna or in the same league as the roof-mounted one I eventually got. But if you're in an apartment and have no other option, and can find one used, it was the best I ever found for that application.

There's been two discussions on this in the last couple weeks...do a search...

If you have room in the attic or want to set up an exterior antenna - go to www.antennaperformance.com - click on the outdoor antenna window - You will see the ASP-9B - I use this in my shop - tied to a rotator they sell - unbeleavable receptation. This can sit upside down in you attic if you have room. You will have to run coax - RG6 quad shield from the antyenna to you tuner. If you turner doen not have a 75ohm connection you will need a balum to go from 300 ohm. This may seem like a lot of work, but I live in the SF Bay area - some great stations with lots of hills. Never a problem with reception since.

The guys actually make this unit and the quality is 1st class. They even make a larger unit that must be roof mounted.

You can check ebay for the larger Godar unit. There's a constant stream of them that sell for $49-$70. List price is $130. The smaller Godar can be had for $49.95 at Parts Express, other sites have them for $59.95. The FM Reflect (do a search on the NPR.org site) is also an option that folks seem to think works well.

Might not be quite in the same league with some of the more expensive antennea, but Rat Shack has an FM-only 70" outdoor antenna ($23!!)that may fit nicely in your attic. Because it's not that big, it's not that directional. (Generally, the larger a boom antenna is, the more directional it is.) DO NOT get a combo TV-FM antenna if you want to maximize performance as the TV portion can interfere with the FM portion.

My experience is limited but, when I investigated it, my next choice was the ASP-9, but it would likely require a rotor.
