Need some help picking a good roof antenna

Hi all,
I would greatly appreciate some input on this. I've been trying to use a regular indoor antenna (Rabbit ears, some cheap ones that come with 'amplifiers', a Terk HDTVa, etc) but haven't had any good luck, I cant even get the regular local channels like Fox, ABC, etc. Have tried numerous placements with no luck. They come in sometimes at night, but its rare. I have trees around the house which may be affecting signal.

I'm now looking to try a roof antenna, but I need help making the right antenna choice.

This is the TVFool report: http://www.tvfool.com/?option=com_wr...9fbe38f1209e90

What do you guys think? What antenna would you recommend?

I've been doing some research, and I could be way off but I have narrowed down to the AntennasDirect DB8, and the Channel Master 4228HD. Also looking at the AnntenasDirect ClearStream4. Do you think the DB8 would get me most of the locals? I want to get as many as possible, but at least Fox/ABC/CBS/NBC,etc. Plan to mount this on the side of the house near the roof with a 40" j-mount.

All help and feedback is greatly appreciated.

Thanks!
