    Go to Antenna.org and plug in your info. It will tell you what stations are available and the size of the antenna you need. Do note all the home-brew antennas are UHF. When the official changeover takes place there will be some channel shuffling. In the Chicago area CBS and ABC will both be on the VHF band.
