I have a cottage at a rural location here in NS. I would like to receive a couple channels (CTV and CBC) so that I can keep up on news and weather and watch a few shows.

I currently have a set of rabbit ears mounted in my attic and a long (maybe 20 feet) 2 lead antenna wire down to my TV. With an analog TV I was getting channel 4 (CBC) and 9 (CJCB - CTV) with a fairly good picture. When I upgraded to a new Phillips LCD TV I now only get Ch. 9 and the pic is not great.
I would like to purchase an outdoor antenna. This I would mount on my rooftop at a height of approx. 25 feet from ground level. I will likely still have a problem with trees that surround my cottage, but will have to see if I can find a hole in them to get to a transmitter.
I have been told the transmitter for Ch. 4 is going down the end of this month so likely I will no longer get it. So my questions are:
1) What would be a good choice for an antenna?
2) Where best to aim it based on the analysis?
3) There are transmitters shown at approx 290 degrees that might be the clearest line of sight, could I possibly get these?
