Antenna Suggestions

Pretty new to OTA Tv. Really would like to get NBC and FOX but realize they are very far away. I will be mounting the antenna mast on my roof. I really don't want to poke holes in my metal roof so could I use one of those gable end brackets that screw into the fascia? Anyone have experience with those? Do they hold up in wind? Do I need two antenna's, one for VHF and one for UHF? Any info would be appreciated.

I have a little powered Magnavox rabbit ear type antenna that will pick up 22, 42, and 7 depending on how I rotate it.

My dad and I mounted his home antenna (not sure what kind) on two pool skimmer poles and walked around the house with a hand held tv and 15db amplifier from radio shack. We got 7(CBS), 9(FOX), 11(NBC), 12(CBS), 22(PBS), 26, 41(ION), 42(ABC). Now I had to rotate the pole to get all of these. And I didn't get them all at once.

Could someone make an antenna recommendation? Thanks in advance.
