That's a great idea - get a good, general purpose (inexpensive) antenna (like the Winegard HD7000R you suggested), point it between ION and Atlanta, and worry about improving the VHF-High signals at a later time (if necessary).
I know that items blocking the horizonal front and back of the antena affect performance, but what about items above or below the antenna? Is there some minimum clearance an antenna needs between the roof and the boom? Half wavelength magic numbers?
