I've recently grown tired of paying comcast to watch only the local channels that I can receive for free over the air. I am trying to determine which antenna setup would allow me to receive all of the digital channels in my area.
I've gone out to antennaweb.org and found the following stations that are available. I'm really only interested in the channels that fall between 257 and 307 on the Compass.

Type CallSign Channel Network Compass Miles Frequency
yellow - uhf WJFB-DT 44.1 IND 75° 7.9 44
yellow - uhf WKRN-DT 2.1 ABC 257° 18.3 27
yellow - uhf WNPT-DT 8.1 PBS 257° 18.3 46
yellow - uhf WHTN-DT 39.1 CTN 120° 5.2 38
yellow - uhf WTVF-DT 5.1 CBS 307° 18.5 56
yellow - uhf WUXP-DT 30.1 MNT 305° 18.6 21
yellow - uhf WZTV-DT 17.1 FOX 305° 18.6 15
green - vhf WSMV-DT 4.1 NBC 277° 19.6 10
green - uhf WNAB-DT 58.1 CW 305° 18.6 23
red - uhf WNPX-DT 28.1 ION 305° 18.6 36

After looking at the channel list, the one channel that I think is going to be an issue is WSMV-DT 4.1 that is VHF.

I submitted this information into the antenna selector at this site, and this is what they recommended for attic installation feeding 3 televisions with some fairly long runs to the TV's

Terrestrial Digital DB4 UHF HDTV Antenna (DB4)
DS-3000 39 Inch J-Mount
Channel Master CM 7777 Titan2 VHF/UHF Preamplifier
Channel Master CM 3044 22dB Four Output Indoor Distribution Amplifier

From what i've read the DB4 is a UHF only antenna, is that antenna going to be able to receive a low frequency VHF signal strongly? And am I going to need to get both a powered preamp and a powered distrubtion amp to feed the 3 TV's in this house?
