Speaking of antennas...What are you using?

The recent thread about antennas got me rethinking antennas.

As soon as the weather breaks, I am going to install a roof top antenna. But which one?

Has anyone tried a new 4, 6, or 8 element bowtie array. I know they were a very popular array before cable came along for UHF reception. Being more or less omnidirectional, they may not be ideal for everyone.

What about the corner reflectors, or the Yagi-Uda designs, or even a log periodic dipole array.

Being on the fringe area of reception for most of the "local" tv stations, I will probably have to go with a directional, high gain array of some type.

Who has the best quality? I haven't seen any in person, but the Channel Masters look to be well built.

Also, who has the best quality low loss feedline?
