Outdoor OTA antenna suggestions

[Codface]

I'm about 35~40 miles due west of downtown Atlanta. The good thing is my house is situated in the highest part of our subdivision. The bad part is I would have to aim a antenna towards the house across the intersection from me and there's a big stand of trees behind their house. I determined this by using a compass standing on my front porch aiming at 86 degrees.

I don't think a indoor or attic antenna would do a very good job so I'm looking for suggestions for a outdoor antenna. The smaller,less obtrusive, the better, because I really haven't noticed any other houses around me with antennas, and I don't want it to stick out. I could mount it maybe 25 feet high, mounted on the back of my house (split-level), at it's highest point.

Thanks for any suggestions. My report:

To take full advantage of the available signals I would opt for a full size antenna such as the Winegard HD7698P paired with an RCA TVPRAMP1R preamplifier.

You could try a Channel Master CM-4228HD which is much more compact. However, it's High-VHF capability is much more limited. If it failed to provide reliable reception of the signals on real channels 7 through 13, you would be faced with adding an Antennas Direct CS5 or Antennacraft Y10713.

If you hide your antenna so other people can't see it, then it's possible that OTA signals may not see it, either.
The 7698P is a beautiful antenna.

It's a badge. Wear it w/ pride.

Lol, hadn't thought about it like that. Thanks for the suggestions, people!
