You have stations from multiple directions.  There is no perfect antenna.  The easy answer is a 7-69 antenna with a rotor.
HD-7694P
HBU-33
Another option is two of these antennas, one aimed at 160 the other at 32 degrees with an A/B switch at the TV set.
Rotors are clumsy, but so are A/B switches.
TVfool also shows 4 LPTV stations.  Do you know what programming is on them?
Thanks for the info Tower Guy. Will have to do some checking on the LPstations ,will get back to you later.

RTN Retro Tv Network  KWCE-LP UHF-27 is a analog transmitter. MyNetwork  K47DW UHF-47 is shown both as a analog and digital transmitter.   TBN Trinity Broadcasting Network  K45IY UHF 45 is a analog transmitter. Unknown programing KBAC UHF 41 is a digital  transmitter.  I recommend a 2 antenna solution , 2 Winegard HD7695P antennas. And a Radio Shack remote control A/B coax switch box. http://www.solidsignal.com  ,  http://www.starkelectronic.com  ,  http://www.warrenelectronics.com  ,  http://www.amazon.com  As all ways , good roof mounts are the Tri-pod mount , the chimney mount and the eave mount. Put the 2 antennas at least 6 foot distance on separate mounts. Point one antenna at magnetic compass 28  and the other antenna at 127 magnetic compass. The 2 antenna solution is the easiest to operate. Read and understand this http://forum.tvfool.com/showthread.php?t=695

Would you expect that will work for CBS on channel 8 at a distance of 72.4 miles without LOS?
Thanks for all the good advise. I will put it to good use.
