I went roof-mounted with a Radio-Shack FM-specfic antenna (the only outdoor FM-specific one they sell). It's omnidirectional, and looks like two crossed loops. Works great. The antenna itself is only $15, but then add the cost of a mast, mounting hardware, lead, grounding wire and ground stake. I paid someone to install it also, because I am afraid of heights. I wanted to avoid unidirectional antennas and rotors, and have so far not regretted it.
