Thumbs up Bye-Bye DirectTV!

I'm looking for some advice on Antenna configuration and setup.

http://www.tvfool.com/?option=com_wr...e1c62efdc0209b

I live in a rather rural area as you can see by above TV signal analysis. I have 5 televisions in my house that are currently fed by satellite. I'm considering mounting the antenna on the current J-Pole where the old satellite sits, and i'm interested to know if this is a good idea or not, plus recommendations on the following:
* Recommendation on a multi-directional or uni-directional Antenna?
* Recommendation whether a powered rotor is necessary?
* Recommendation on whether a pre-amplifier is necessary?
* Recommendation on whether a distribution amplifier is necessary?
* Recommendation on whether I can use the Coax from the current satellite installation (Note my DirectTV installation is just over two years old).

I should also note, that i'm streaming video to my television via Roku device, and subscribe to Netflix and Hulu, but only to one TV. It would be nice to be able to stream to multiple tv's and i'm guessing it will require multiple Roku devices?

Specific equipment recommendations are welcome.

With thanks,
Bob
