I recommend install a Winegard HD7696P antenna above the roof in such a manner that the roof and house is not blocking reception to the , north west and north.

Aim the HD7696P antenna at about 340 degree magnetic compass direction.

Install a Winegard AP8700 preamp.

Thanks Teleview. Unfortunately, I know I can't put it outside, and almost certain it wouldn't fit in the attic on the north-west side in the orientation required. Any alternatives that allows an small area attic installation (maybe a 6-7 ft boom), maybe one of those deep fringe type of antennas, or how what another poster mentioned, the clearstream2, would that be feasible? From a size standpoint, it would be ideal.

Again thanks.
