Your recommendations welcome, keeping in mind this is flat area, So Calif
coastal

Be aware that some homes (typically built in the past 10 years or so) may
have foil backed insulation/sheetrock in the walls that can play hell with
reception even in strong signal areas.

I had never even thought about that. Thanks for mentioning it. So
if the house is 35 years old, not much chance of foil????

Years ago. I called up one of the antenna companies (the one that makes
small, external radio antennas) and asked about aluminum siding. Bad,
he told me.
