Take a look at this antenna:

Is this something that may help with fine tuning HD reception?  I would think that being able to fine tune from the comfort of your chair would be a plus.  This would also eliminate having your body act as a conductor while moving the antenna masts around.  I hate fine tuning antennas only to have the reception go bad when I walk away from the unit.

I have been using the Channelmaster (outdoor)version for about 9 months. Works great - highly recommended by this couch potato-in-training.
I even have my universal remote programmed to operate it   Especially great if, like me, you're pulling signals from different cities. Only drawback so far is the need for regular syncronization. Every 50 or so moves makes the rotor "confused". However, syncro (on this model) can be pre-programed and automated. Picked it up from Marmax.

Hey, it's remote-controlled - gotta have it - right?
