While not impossible, she will have to work hard to get that channel.

To have a shot she will need a high gain antenna mounted as high as possible with a totally clear path to the tower. No trees, other houses, etc. in the way. Success will depend on a clear path at that distance.

I like bow tie style antennas, but she has a VHF channel 7 that bow tie antennas are not likely to receive without an add on for VHF, or use a separate VHF antenna with a UVSJ.

Others can recommend a combo Yagi style that may be better suited for her.

PS. You can forget the $35 Wally World.
