Well, I just made my first DIY prototype HD antenna based on these designs. I live 30 miles away from the main towers and have tried many store purchased antennas. I even have an outside Terk TV55 antenna. I can get about 5 more channels with this thing INSIDE my house. Time to start my final outdoor version.
