Brad,

Try it with whatever antenna you already have.  I use the old existing 
antenna that was already well rusted when I moved in back in 2000 for my 
main TV.  I use rabbit ears that came with my 1990 purchased TV in the 
bedroom with a converter box.  Both get channels digital channels better 
than analog.  With the rabbit ears TV I sometimes have to adjust them 
and they are subject to more interference than the roof antenna.

Go to http://www.antennaweb.org/aw/Address.aspx and put in your address 
to see where to point your antenna and see what stations their computer 
thinks you should get.  They were right on with my reception in the Los 
Angeles area.
