You need an amplified directional antenna similar to this.

Also checkout antennaweb.org to figure out where to point your antenna. Use your phone as a compass.

any cheap antennae will work. ABC will be great, CBS requires the user to be smarter than the device. Here is what we do:

Set up your antennae and search over the air channels by using your tv's menu. once done, look and see if your tv found channel 9-1 (this is the over the air CBS station) If it did not, randomly move your antennae over a foot in any direction and repeat the channel search. Keep doing this until your tv finds 9-1. it may take a while. Once your tv finds the station then select that channel. it may be partial reception, pixelated, or no reception at all. Since your tv has found that station, simply have someone move it around until you get a solid hd signal.

once success is acheived (this is the most important part) make an announcement stating any drunk arse that bumps the antennae and loses the signal will get pummeled like david duke at soul train

While I don't agree on the amplified part, that type of design works really well. Also see if you can find a Zenith Silver Sensor
