Hi, I'm surrounded by weak signals either due to being in a valley or sheer distance, perhaps.

I'd like to receive access to basic channels 2-11. It looks like they're almost all to the east in a perfect line from my location (the few that aren't can be sacrificed).
I've been browsing around a little and see there are some directional antennas available that may do the trick. It also looks like the channels I want are VHF, but I really don't know anything about this beyond what I've researched today. If a VHF/UHF combo will get me more channels than a simple UHF or simple VHF, great. The more channels the better! I don't know what kind of quality/range sacrifices might be made either way, if any, though.
Given the poor signal strength this might be asking too much, but I'd like to put the antenna in my attic (there's a good amount of space up there for a bigger antenna). On the plus side, there aren't any trees around it. The down side: my roof has concrete shingles. Possible?
Budget isn't really an issue. It makes sense to pay a few hundred for an antenna and be done than pay thousands to a cable company over the course of a lifetime.
Given my roof's concrete shingles and the poor signal in my area, is there any attic setup that could work? While an attic setup is much much preferred, if there's no way to do it I'd love to hear rooftop antenna recommendations as well (no snow, little rain, mostly sun — it doesn't need to withstand much).
Thanks in advance!
