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. I would have thought
that I could easily find (simple) instructions on the internet but
can't. Does anybody have a simple idea that just uses wire (wire
should be easy to attach in an attic).

There was an article in Electronics World in December 1967 by Harold
Pruett titled "Designs for Log-Periodic FM & TV antennas". He used two
lengths of hookup wire, attached to a wooden frame in a zigzag
pattern, and gives all the dimensions needed. I built one then and it
has worked fine ever since, though now there's nothing to receive in
this area so I've switched to a UHF-only antenna in the attic. I can
mail you xeroxes of the article. I'm adouglas (at) gis.net.
