If you're getting reliable reception on the UHF channels with a UHF antenna, then if it were me, I'd try adding a VHF antenna with the highest gain I could find and see what happens. Use it by itself, not combined with the UHF (whichever one you use in the end), for testing purposes. If you receive the channel(s) you want, combine them with either a UVSJ, or a preamp with separate inputs for UHF and VHF.

You said something about tossing it down from the attic; are you trying to install an antenna system in the attic?
