I cut the cord to the satellite company . . .

and my wallet feels much better.

I've gone to the FCC website to find where the local transmitters are relative to my location and it looks like I'm good.

Having grown up with only 4 channels in my local market all of which were VHF, it surprised me to see all the locals here in Ft Myers are UHF.

I'm thinking a Radio Shack UHF antenna on a mast on the roof. That ought to get the antenna about 25' off the ground.

Now the questions

Is Radio Shack a good source for an antenna? Is UHF only wise? I might like FM too. How do you split the signal between the old B&W analog sets and the flat screen that the wife likes? Is 75 & 300 ohm still the cable designation?

Help me get caught up, please.
