For HDTV you usually want a UHF Log Periodic. These are much smaller than the traditional VHF antennas, i.e. shorter rods, closer spacing.
So HDTV stations are usually put on UHF then? Good to know. It's actually not that difficult to make a log-periodic antenna for UHF since the sizes are good. Not so big as VHF, but not so tiny as 802.11, say. I've made a number of them myself and they work great.... check out the AARL handbook for a HOWTO for anyone interested.
