Hey MUGOO OTA HDTV fans ... Here are a few resources:

TV Fool will give you a starting point for locating stations: http://www.tvfool.com/
This is the result for my cottage: http://www.tvfool.com/?option=com_wrapper&Itemid=29&q=id%3d46aeff9d91614b

Get listings for OTA channels from ZAP2IT: http://tvlistings.zap2it.com/tvlistings/ZCGrid.do
Click on the tiny "Change My Location" link to get the correct spot and then choose "Local - Broadcast (Antenna)"

I used a ClearStream 4 antenna that I borrowed (and then bought) from LeRoy Lees. Evidently LeRoy chose it based on extensive research by Ben Schmidt.  http://www.antennasdirect.com/store/ClearStream-4-Ultra-Long-Range-Outdoor-DTV-Antenna.html
