In general a multi-directional antenna is a poor choice, even if you live in a strong (green) signal area. The problem is not the signal strength, but that the antenna will pick up unwanted reflections from nearby buildings, hills, etc. Unless you are very lucky, at least some if these reflections will interfere with your signal causing "multipath" problems. In analog TV, these appear as "ghosts", but in digital TV they can make even a strong signal unreceivable, or at least not reliably. The best solution is a moderately directional antenna (such as the Channel Master 4224) and a rotator if your signal sources come from widely different directions.

Note: I assume you have gone to antennaweb http://www.antennaweb.org/aw/welcome.aspx
to find out you are in the red or blue zones. If not, do so. It will have antenna recommendations.

You advise us to go to antennaweb.org. We did. They advise us to use a multidirectional antenna which you specifically state we should not use! Your Channel Master will not work for our distance. No this was not helpful.
