A pure play is to obtain a large directional UHF-VHF pointed in the direction of the towers and up at the top of the blocking hill. Then add tower mounted amplification as needed. Look at the larger of the Winegard 769 series for VHF/UHF. Among the best of the UHF only models is the Terrestrial Digital - XG91. It is 93 inches long.

I'd look around the neighborhood to see what the neighbors are using and ask a local antenna installer for advice. You may be stuck with cable there.Recommends: Kiva.org - Loans that change lives.
