nonsense! NONE of the godar antennas are as good as an external directional antenna

It is simply NOT possible -> physics.
As I have pointed out baove yr own FCC has a ruling making it possible for far more of you than do, to have an external antenna.
If you are completely unable to have an external antenna, and want good results a dipole, one of the old BIC's, or a pr of rabbit ears are measurably better, still. If you wanted really good results and all wanted stations are within a small say 30 degree arc, one or two rhombics made of wire pinned to yr ceiling will do as well as an outdoor yagi, most people do not notice them.

Godars do look nice to some people, I'll grant you that.
If it's not inside you can't brag about it, is THAT the problem?
