    Hello all,

    As the thread title says, I’m looking for reccomendations re: Antennas for my HTPC.

    Here are my system specs:

    [list]
    [*]Windows Vista Home Ultimate, 32 bit 
    [*]Intel Core 2 Duo 2.66GHz 
    [*]ASUS P5N-EM HDMI w/ NVIDIA GeForce 7100  [url=http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16813131229](link)[/url]
    [*]Micro ATX Case  [url=http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16811154087](link) [/url]
    [*]D-Link PCI Wireless Adapter   
    [*]2 GB of RAM   
    [*]320 GB Hard Drive   
    [*]DVD Optical Drive    [/list:u]

    I’m only after over-the-air free channels.  I live in a condominium building, so I need an indoor antenna.  Here are a few that I’m considering:

    Terk HDTVa[url=http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16882145017](link)[/url]
    Winegard SS-3000 [url=http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16882557001](link)[/url]
    Anyone have any experience with these?  I like the price of the Terk, but I like the design / looks of the Winegard.

    In another thread, someone mentioned this one from RadioShack [url=http://www.radioshack.com/product/index.jsp?productId=2253765](link)[/url]

    According to Antennaweb.org, all of the broadcast towers are to the north.  However, all of my windows face south.  Can I still use a directional antenna such as this one from Radioshack?

    I appreciate any info.  Thanks,
