Rooftop antenna and the works

Okay, it's been a good 11 or 12 years since I've had a rooftop antenna. Before the introduction of hi-def, this was a hot spot for television reception. I'm in the middle of the country approx. 85-90 miles from Memphis and about the same from Cape Girardeau, MO.

Before the advent of hi-def, we easily got 14 channels on a regular basis and if the weather was right, I could pull in St. Louis stations and Evansville, IN. I know frequencies have changed since then and if I understand right, it's all in the UHF band now.

Coax is still ran throughout the house to various rooms and into the attic where I could readily run a booster if needed.

It's been a long time since I've looked at antennas, rotors, booster, etc. and that was back in the analog days. What would I be looking at to go back to a rooftop antenna now that everything's digital? Thanks!
