Where do you live?  There are also antennas on Blanton Heights (due
south of downtown) and Murray Hill (south of Beltline/W. 11th).  The
Coburg hills are north of Gateway.  All three sites are pretty easy to
see at night because of the blinking red lights.

Also consider whether a rooftop antenna would help.  The cost is
small potatoes compared to several years of access fees.

Next time I move, I'm definitely working out the internet angle before
I close on the house. (-:
