Due to the tremendous number of changes in Canada, I have to assume that many of the analog signals shown on your report are no longer on the air. Until the staff at TV Fool can get caught up with all the database edits, we're guessing to some extent about which stations are or aren't on the air.

Also, I don't know how many sets will be connected.

All that said,

Indoor: Try a Terk HDTVi non amplified indoor antenna. (Not the HDTVa amplified.)

Attic: Winegard HD769x series. (These are fairly long antennas, if you can make it fit and still aim toward 145° compass, the HD7698P would not be overkill. It would give you a chance at seeing some US based stations. The smaller versions are still viable options.)

Roof (preferred): Just like the attic the Winegard HD7698P gives you the best chance at seeing several US based stations in addition to the local Canadian stations. The smaller version, the HD7694P would certainly offer the local stations and might see a US station.
