Hello,
I recently moved to NW Houston from a different area of Houston and was wondering if someone could provide some assistance on what antenna option I should select. The house is a 2 story home in NW Houston with Techshield all around so most likely I will need to find an external antenna.

I've had great luck previous with an Antennas Direct DB4 in the attic at my previous home, but that antenna was only UHF so I had to pair with some rabbit ears via a splitter - which wasn't a problem in the attic, but now I don't believe sticking an antenna in the attic will be an option.
Any recommendations on a UHF\VHF antenna for my location would be greatly appreciated.
I've looked at the following and was not sure if these would be overkill or not, or what the best option may be. I definitely am not limited to these, but wanted something which would make the wife & the family happy;
