For those in Boston: what antenna are you using for over the air TV?

Hi broadcasting friends:

My mom might soon drop cable and go strictly with OTA. She lives in an
apartment building in South Boston. I see good reviews of several antennas
on Amazon, but I’d like to hear from folks in the city who pull in OTA
signals. Would a decent antenna pick up all the in-market network
affiliates and their subchannels, or would I need a range extender? I know
repack is ongoing, but haven’t been following super closely. She’s on the
side of the building, not directly facing the street. Any signal would need
to fight its way through a wall or two (an older brick wall at that).

I trust you all more than any Amazon review. Thanks in advance for any
help.
