I'd like some suggestions....

Can anyone give me some suggestions about this... I want to keep my outdoor antenna south towards Victoria and Corpus, with me being in Lavaca county, I can get the Missouri City tower farm pretty decent, but I would like to maybe put another antenna in the acttic and use that for Houston. My problem here is that I have a metal roof. I know that will kill a lot of the reception, but I was just maybe hoping to get the Missouri City Senior road tower the 9 stations. Those are the ones I can get the clearest. My outdoor antenna pulls them in OK, but I'd like to have it better. Any suggestions would be helpfull! I'm also looking into a FM tuner with 2 inputs.
 
Years ago, when I lived in Spring, I put a VHF-TV antanna on a 30 foot mast. (It was also on a hill) It has one of those early Radio Shack rotators. I could swing that thing around and bring in all kinds of stations. I remember taping KNUS-99, out of Dallas. It came in very clear. Since the FM band begins right after Channel 6-TV audio, I felt a TV antenna would work. It did.
