I don't know about dtv, but I'm always trying to pull in a good clear picture and sound on ch 56, which is about 50 mi away from me, and I'm in a bottom floor apt. What works for me is 2 of those 'bow tie' antennas. Clip them on to a pair of rabbit ears, on the same rabbit ear, one on top of the other, have them both facing the same direction, whatever produces the best reception, but I only connect the top 'bow tie' to the uhf converter, I've tried several different arrangements of bow ties and that works the best. In my experience the bow ties outperform the loops. I've never tried one of those dual bow ties with the rear reflector, which is basically what I'm talking about here with the addition of the reflector, so that might work better.
