Probably a Channel Master 4228. That is what I use. Even picks VHf channels 7-13.

As good as the 4228 is, it isn't a one size fits all antenna. I tried one here and it was a huge dissapointment. The 4228 does not perform well in an extreme multipath environment.

Agreed. I don't have that kind of environment though. I think we need to know his exact location just as you suggested. What do you use?

The photo above is my current set-up. 2 separate RG-6 cables run all the way to the tv for maximum flexibilty, with no amplification.
