Hi - I need to receive VHF TV (channels 6,7,9,13) and would like to
make a super-duper antenna for inside my attic.

Good grief. Just buy an antenna and open it up in the attic. I've done
it several times and it will cost a lot less in time and aggravation.
Or is your time not worth anything?

Oh, what a shame! Is there no joy in experimenting any more? I have always
felt the essence of our hobby has been somebody saying, "Let's try this and
see what happens." Sometimes it's an enjoyable QSO and sometimes it's a
cloud of acrid smoke. I've had both.

I, too, suggested a store-bought antenna but I went on to suggest other
things to try. The OP seems to have an adventurous spark. I vote for
ENCOURAGE.
