A suggestion:

You seem to have the best luck with VHF stations. Check out the real channels of the stations you get most frequently and you'll see what I mean. The VHF section of your antenna will be hard to improve upon, so I recommend you consider buying the golden standard for long-range UHF reception, the Antennas Direct XG-91. You can combine the two using a special combiner known as a UVSJ (search your favorite on-line store), connecting the XG-91 into the UHF port and your antenna in the VHF port. Run the combined signal into the pre-amp and then off you go.

As far as mounting everything goes, if the two antennas would be too much for the rotor, mount your original antenna fixed towards Chicago and use the rotor to aim the XG-91.
