HDTV antenna


I have the Zenith C34W23 34" widescreen HDTV. My crappy cable company hasn't produced a box that transmits HD signals yet, and my apartment situation makes satellite impossible (no view of the southern skyline). Can anyone recommend an HDTV antenna that I could run into the Zenith to get over-the-air HDTV? I live in the Washington, DC area (Bethesda, MD).

Thanks all,
Brian

Get the Terk indoor, I dont remember the model number.
Its around $110.00. Its white, and around 4 ft long.

Good Luck.......Vader
Vader --- how well does the Terk indoor work for you? Are you in a location where you can easily pick up several HDTV signals?
The model is: TERK TV55. I use it here in Fort Lauderdale and get CBS, ABC, PBS, WB.

Thanks for the help, everyone...I'm in the process of trying to pick one up on eBay (looks like $50-$60 will do it).
There is an extensive discussion of UHF antennas on www.avsforum.com; I think, without verifying, that the antenna gurus consider the Terk to be a waste of money. My recollection was that the now discontinued (but still occasionally available) RS bowtie was considered the best, esp. if you hardwired in a 75 ohm to 300 ohm transformer right at the terminals and used shielded cable back to your HDTV box.

If you are in the DC area and want a free UHF directional, there's a new one in my garage taking up space...

Also, since the UHFs are directional, check www.antennaweb.org (I'm doing this from memory). Gives you, for a set of input coordinates, all directions and distances to the digital HDTV broadcasts in your area. Can be useful for initial set up.
