Reddit reviews 1byone Omni-directional Indoor HDTV Antenna for UHF/VHF/FM with Stand, 40 Miles Range 10 Feet High Performance Cable

I live out by Urbana and we dropped our DirecTV back in August. I picked up this antenna:

I placed it in my attic and have had great reception with it. I can even pick up several stations from Quad Cities and Des Moines even.

I do have the advantage of living on top of a hill in the country with very few trees around, but I would expect you'd have no problem picking up the main local channels in Cedar Rapids.

I like the fact that it is omni-directional since the antennas in our area are scattered all over the place.
