Hello Best Buy customer Andy! In an attempt to answer your question, I went on the website TVFool.com which is just many of the websites people use to identify the location and distance of the over-the-air TV stations which they should be able to receive with an HDTV antenna and I am sorry to say that after I entered the zip code "17701" which is just one of a few of the zip codes listed for your town's location that indication was made that only three (3) stations would be able to be received with the assistance of this Winegard Flatwave FL-5500A indoor HDTV antenna. If one were to use a rooftop HDTV antenna, I believe that there were a few more. If you go on TVFool.com and then click onto "If you'd like to check your location click here" and then enter the zip code (for example) "17701" you will see "loading terrain & transmitter bases" and then the chart will populate. You will also be able to see the location of your broadcast towers and the distance that they are from you. The TV channels in the "green" area are the ones that one can probably receive with an indoor HDTV antenna and the channels in the yellow and red areas require an attic or rooftop antenna respectively. Please remember that there are no guarantees with over-the-air TV broadcast reception as there are so many variables involved. I have found that even atmospheric conditions and replacing my aluminum mini blinds with vinyl blinds make a difference in over-the-air reception. Please consider connecting a laptop to your TV if your TV and computer have an HDMI port or using a streaming device like a ROKU, etc. You'd have to adjust the settings on your computer and TV to make all images fit; however, it would increase your viewing options for what could be a big monetary savings. Happy TV viewing Best Buy customer Andy!
