I'm in Birmingham as well and none of the ones I purchased would pick up the ABC signal, and the CBS signal was spotty. I'm down 280 though on Cahaba Valley Rd, so being kind of in a valley is part of the problem.
I made a homemade one and I get all of them without a problem. It's pretty ugly though and the wife won't let me keep it behind the TV in the living room.
My advice is go to Walmart or BB, and start with the cheap ones. If they don't work, take it back and get next cheapest, and so on until you find one that works.

I'm in Vestavia in the Rocky Ridge area. CBS is perfect. I was having issues with NBC on my oldest TV but cutting out a bunch of excess coax seemed to fix it. The newer ones worked fine but this is like an 8-9 year old LCD. I'm probably getting rid of it for a smart tv for the bedroom soon though.
