Cutting the cable, lets talk options and media setups

Just an update on my antenna research. Last Friday I purchased two indoor antennas, an inexpensive one from Target and a longer range Terk antenna from Best Buy. Both are the flat Mohu Leaf style.

The one from Target performed better than expected giving me 7 channels. I realized the FCC website isn't updated with the new local channels as I was only expecting to get 4 channels according to their website. GE Indoor Antenna Ultra Edge Amp - Black (10621) : Target

The one from Best Buy was around double the price and resulted in 3 more channels. With this antenna, I was able to receive ABC, NBC, CBS, AND FOX. This is really all I need. I was really impressed with this antenna. TERK Ultrathin Indoor Amplified HDTV Antenna Multi THINTV1A - Best Buy

So now the issue is that I will need two of these leaf style antennas, one for the bedroom and one for the living room. So that puts me at $160 if I go with the Terk from Best Buy. However, I can buy an outdoor antenna in the $150 range and mount it in the attic with a splitter to the two tv's. You know what they say about assuming, but I assume I'll AT LEAST get the 10 stations the Terk picked up with the outdoor antenna in the attic. Would you agree with this assumption?
