I live in the Lincoln Square area of Chicago. I previously had a $30 amplified antenna from Radioshack that worked perfectly, but when I moved the towers must have been in a different direction or something and I was getting a miserable signal no matter how much I fiddled with the antenna. After trying several other amplified/"more powerful" antennas, I figured why not try it, it's cheap enough, and it worked. The reception isn't perfect and I had to mess with the placement/direction of the antenna for about half an hour, but when all was said and done it was the best antenna I could find without spending $100 and it was $12 with price match.
