I assume you mean an aerial on the roof which picks up the signal from the transmitter and then rebroadcasts it down to the house so you can pick it up using rabbit's ears indoors.

One way or another there's going to be cable running to the aerial, either a power cable to feed the transmitter if it's a masthead job or a co-ax cable to bring the signal into the attic if the transmitter is located there so your concept of having a 'wireless' aerial doesn't stand up I'm afraid.
