usb freeview on my computer

I've bought about 3 USB freeview sticks for my laptop up to now and none of them have found me a signal channel, I'm guessing it's because of the crappy aerial they all come with, so I'm thinking of buying an indoor freeview aerial, if you could tell me if this is a decent one or not it would be great:

but then I need to buy a new usb freeview stick (ive lost the others), but because my laptop is media center (but I'd use it on my desktop which is XP pro) too, I nede to make sure it is compatible, also on ebay they range from what £10 to £50 so I wasn't sure what the difference was.. Please can you help me out choosing one too?

:D
