Many thanks,

You want the best, go with Winegard, they are awesome:

Also consider that VHF analog broadcasts will be gone in short time,
so an antenna that favors UHF reception would be better for over the
air High Definition which is broadcast digitally in UHF. The HD8200P
should be fine if you still need good VHF reception now, and should do
outstandingly well for everything in the future and current HD
broadcasts.


Most of the newer TV stations around here use UHF, but there's an
interesting exception. The local ABC station broadcasts digitally on
channel 10.

how many tvs are you watching at the same time? if its usually 4 or
less you can run a cable from one or two of the satellite receivers
add a switch with infrared remote extender and control your satellite
receiver and watch it from tv number 5
