I'd look at a DB8e, remove the reflector and point it at the 45 degree true direction or so.

The reason I'd do this is without the reflector it will pick up stations from both the back and front. By pointing it at about 45 you're splitting the difference between 2 of the tower directions.

Mount this on the roof as high as you can to maximize your reception. Bow tie style antennas have a lower wind load than a large Yagi so it makes it easier to go higher.

This would only get UHF channels, and you have 2 VHF so you would need to add a VHF only antenna and use a joiner to combine them.

If you use a rotator with 2 TV's and you watch both at the same time, who is going to decide which direction to point it?

I think any kind of amp would overload your tuners as you have some close and strong signals.
