Attics Are Not a reception friendly environment and Never Will be a reception friendly environment.
Most of the signal strengths at your location are moderate to weak signal strengths.
Install the CM2020 antenna to above the roof in such a manner that the roof and house are not blocking reception to the , south west , south , south east , east.

It sounds like there are some bad coax sections / connections.
As a Test to Prove reception , with the CM2020 antenna installed above the roof , replace the matching transformer (balun) with a new one that connects the antenna to the coax that goes to the Tv.
Connect a New Looooong coax to the new matching transformer and run the looooong coax through a open door or window , direct to 1 Tv.
No splitters , No coax ground block , No couplers , No distribution amplifier , No nothing.
Digital tuners can develop - Digital Glitches - that are not cleared out with a simple channel scan.
I recommend a Double Channel scan.

As always , trees and tree leaves do a real fine job of reducing or blocking Digital Broadcast Tv reception and so do buildings and other obstructions including your own roof and house.
It is best to install the CM2020 antenna at a location that has the least amount to no amount of obstructions of any type or kind in the directions of reception including your own house.
The Tv/s Must channel Scan for the Digital Broadcast Tv Channels , often named the 'Air Channels' or 'Antenna Channels' in the Tv setup menu because the Tv transmissions travel through the air from the transmitting antenna to the receiving antenna.
Some Digital Tv's will automatic channel scan for cable tv channels.
Go to the Tv menu and select 'Air Channels' / 'Antenna Channels'.
DO NOT channel scan for cable tv channels.
