A home brewed double Gray-Hoverman. Apparently, they work pretty well

And the best thing is that there's no size limit in the OTARD rules for
these antennas. the 1 meter limit is ONLY for satellite antennas. OTA
terrestrial has no size limit. Build that 20 bay curtain array.

There's no explicit size limit stated for the antennas. However, it
could be argued that building an antenna which is larger than
necessary for good reception is not protected... prohibited
restrictions include those which "preclude(s) a person from receiving
or transmitting an acceptable quality signal from an antenna covered
under the rule."

Hence, if you can receive an acceptable-quality signal on all channels
with a 1-bay antenna, the FCC *might* consider as reasonable a
restriction against putting up a 20-bay antenna.

The rules also say "Masts higher than 12 feet above the roofline may
be subject to local permitting" and that the rules do not preempt
"legitimate safety restrictions".

It's clear that a blanket "no on-the-roof TV antennas" restriction by
HOR rules or CCRs is generally unenforceable.
