Just moved into a new house. Went to Best Buy and picked up the longest range antenna there - the ClearStream 2. The antenna is presently sitting on top of a cabinet on the second floor. The signal analysis tells me all channels are grey zone at best with path of double edge diffraction. Here is the link.

I tried pointing the antenna NNW but that gave me 0 channels. Pointing it NNE gave me 5 channels, which is counter intuitive since broadcast stations are from Mt. Wilson, which is NNW of my location. Pointing NE gave me nothing. Pointing SW gave me the same 5 channels. Geographically, my house is the on the south side of a hill so I have no LOS. Further south is another hill. Then I noticed the report shows double edge diffraction. So where does that mean I should point the antenna? Is the clearstream 2 suitable for this? I saw Lowes selling an RCA outdoor antenna (ANT3036X) - would that be more suitable?
I have not ventured into the attic yet but plan to do that this memorial day weekend. HOA won't allow antennas on the roof, so that's not an option. Any advice?
