hi,
My grandad put a tv antenna in the attic; about 30 years ago.
He had to use a huge antenna, and i think he cut off the fm blocker
tabs to get enough signal. You take a big loss when the signal hits those roofing nails; but it can be done.
He was a belts and suspenders kind of engineer. He was also ready
for the day when the Russkies came over the Maine border (notice i did not say the word PARANOID!!! That sort of characterisation is utterly beneath me)
From what little i know of this, a few grounding wands, one one the antenna; works great.
