Need my own antenna

Let me try this again. I want to cut the cord, but the wife requested we do a trial run on the bedroom tv first and then repurpose the antenna to the camper no matter what happens.

I want to go with an indoor antenna, but don't know what type is best for my location. I burrowed a clear-cast x1 digital antenna from a buddy at work and it gets me all the locals plus ME, H&I, Get, Grit and Antenna tv along with channel 39 what ever that is. I get a fair amount of pixels on some channels off and on with the antenna mounted on the north wall up near the ceiling.

Trouble is the clear-cast x1 digital antenna is over $80 on their site and anything that is "as seen on tv" normally isn't very good for the money spent.

I know nothing about tv antennas now days and I am looking over this site to start learning.

My questions are is a directional antenna best bang for the buck in my area or should I look into something different. Want to keep it under $40 if I can and if I can get the 21 channels I am now but minus the pixels I would be thrilled. The more channels I get the better my chances of the wife saying dump directv.

I few leads would be great.

Thank you for your input.
