for people to give you an accurate choice on your antenna we need the tv fool report.

however if most of your stations are within 20 miles and you live in an area with line of sight meaning no mountains then you can get them all with the mohu.

As you noticed you need to be higher off the ground for better reception but this also depends on the type antenna and the type signal you are receiving .. for some antennas height does not matter much .. for db4 or a yaggi type (the kind with all the poles) they like height and also you need to keep the antenna away from RF disturbances like Electric motors, compressors in refrigerators Air conditioners and your computer.

if you have a lot of stations in your area ... search av163 antenna

you can use a distribution amplifier instead of a splitter it will reduce your losses but get one with a gain knob or setting you can adjust so you are not overpowering your system... on the other hand if you are like me you need every last drop of signal you can get so crank it up.
