So, the wife is not happy with the tv situation. We used to get "analog" via small rabbit ears mounted on the tv inside the house and everything was fine, then the signal began to suffer as all the conversions and digital "tests" were run. We bought some digital converters, and hooked them to rabbit ears, and now we only get a nice picture half the time. Other half is nothing.

I told her I would put up an outside antenna. Whoops! So guys, what do I need to do. I have read on here that I need RG-8 cable. Is there an optimal height to antenna ratio? I live on flat, flat ground. I have read I need an amplifier and a rotor for the antenna. How far can the cable run be with the amplifier? Do they make a "bi-directional" antenna that does not require the rotor?
