I live in a little "valley", shielded from the local air channels and have tried various antennae over the years with little success. Sometimes they work, sometimes they don't.
When the boys are home they have some very creative ways to watch something on TV. Usually involving a computer or an Apple TV gizmo.
Me? I don't worry to much about it. If I have the want to and the time there are things available on cable from time to time that I want to watch.

the newer amplified antennae (what I have to use) seem better than the type I remember from the 70's. have you tried utilizing height? sometimes 5-10 feet higher makes it happy. the best for UHF is the old big Yaggee (sp?) antennae with an amp, 10 foot or more length if ya can.... someone else techier may weigh in with better scoop....
also here rural, they are adding UHF stations to mountain peak translators all the time, so pretty good array of free, I get guess 30 or so for me
