Las Vegas is a valley surrounded by mountains. Wouldn't that make it difficult to get a clear signal with an antenna?

A portion of The Telecommunications Act of 1996 contains a section on over-the-air TV antennas. This law makes it legal to install an outside antenna with certain restrictions, such as try to install it on the back of the house - unless it is necessary to have it located elsewhere to receive "an acceptable signal". Also there is a height restriction of no more than 12 feet above the rear roofline - unless again it must be higher to receive "an acceptable signal". There is also a section of the law that discusses how condo and apartment residents may use outdoor antennas (I have not read that section). However, the really interesting thing is - local governments and homeowners associations are essentially overruled and cannot prevent the installation of outside antennas. The homeowner is allowed to install the antenna and it is the responsibility of the HOA to try to prove the antenna should not be installed.
Now, having said all of this, I cannot offer any insight on the quality over over-the-air antenna reception in Vegas. I simply wanted to point out it is legal to have one.
