Hello and welcome!

It looks like you're really close the the transmitters, but still have a major terrain blockage in the way. Take a look at the profile view of KXRM (Fox) for your location (in the graphic, transmitter is on the left, your location is on the right).

Your house is pretty deep in the shadows of the little peak between you and the transmitter.



There are only a handful of transmitters that still have enough signal strength to be picked up with a rooftop antenna (roughly channels down to the "red" zone in the list, plus-or-minus a little bit). You'll need a pretty high gain (large) antenna like the Winegard HD7698P or Antennacraft HBU-55 on your roof to go after these stations.

You'll have to decide if there are enough stations within reach to make it worth your while.
