I use an old combo UHF / VHF antenna in the attic. I also made a small cardboard box antenna which is next to the combo and use a splitter/combiner as mentioned above by Uncle Michael.
To make the UHF cardboard antenna just used cardboard, aluminum foil, glue and a 300 Ohm to 75 Ohm balun. About $1.00 worth of parts and maybe 20 minutes to make it.
It is easier to point than the large antenna (6-7 foot long) and works well for HD.
I posted the DIY here on Cocoontech.
