Aerial recommendations?

Any recommendations for an aerial - looking to fit it at the top of the gable at the rear of the house.

One stop shop. Read their excellent guides and unless your sat on a TV transmitter get a band specific aerial rather than wideband. Identify your TV transmitter and go from there. Usually easily enough to figure out, look where the neighbours aerials are pointing towards. Log periodic aerials are nice and compact IF suitable.

I'm in an extreme fringe area so have the biggest Band A Yagi they do.

If you want unobtrusive, we’ve got one of these.

 

 

but check it’ll work where you are.
 

We generally get good DTV reception including the HD channels but sometimes the weather does seem to affect it for a few hours.

Oh, and as for orientation I searched the web for our nearest transmitter, used Google Earth to get the direction from house to transmitter and then used the compass on my smart phone to align it.
