Libby:
I see that the Channel Master 4149 is now listed as discontinued (that's too bad; don't know whether this was the case the other day, or whether I just didn't notice). If you can't find that antenna, the next best inexpensive choice I've heard of is called the Silver Sensor. It's also a UHF-only antenna with some directivity, and it was sold under both Zenith and Phillips names. Wiring would be identical to the 4149; just point the short front end toward your south-southwest. I think it might come in both amplified and non-amplified versions; if so, stick with the non-amplified. Some places might show the Silver Sensor as discontinued also, but it should be findable (easily findable on Google). I suspect they're discontinuing the inexpensive good UHF antennas to try to get people to buy more expensive amplified ones (which probably won't work well for many people anyway).
