I’m not far from TV towers but still needed to run an antenna up in my attic to eliminate occasional static.  You know your area better than I, but if I were in a more rural area I’d probably install an antenna on the roof to get it as high as possible.

Interestingly in my case, I found that leaving my powered antenna unplugged and therefore unpowered resulted in much less static.  I set my mom up with the same setup I have and found the same thing with her antenna though she doesn’t live far from me.  Maybe the powered feature works for some of you with antennas, but it’s apparently a hinderance in my area.
