“Valleys” was the key word there. Even if the distance isn’t bad, a mountain between you and the broadcast tower can make 20 miles look like 70 in terms of signal
With ATSC 1.0 channels this is generally true, with some exceptions, but ATSC 3.0 channels use OFDM to circumvent a lot of interference. There’s no real way of knowing whether or not it would work but Amazon has a 30-day return policy.
