Wayne,
A Yagi antenna is tried and true and would do a good job for
you. Ideally the antenna would be several feet above any buildings
and as far in the clear from trees and other obstacles as
possible. And, the feed line should be good quality coax. That
should be good for starters.
Hope this helps.
