OTA Antenna Assistance

First of all thanks to everyone on this site; great resource for OTA information! I talked my wife into the "Cut the Cord" lifestyle about 1.5 years ago and have loved it since. I built a HTPC and am currently setup with an indoor antenna that has worked fine to date with meh results during bad weather and such. The antenna feeds direct from my office on the first floor to the basement where it is connected to an HDHomerun

Then carries over through ethernet to my HTPC, using WMC I then basically tune in and watch TV OTA, movies etc.

The indoor antenna is a ClearStream Micron Indoor Long-Range Digital TV Antenna from Newegg and i pickup the basics CBS/NBC/etc.

Here is my TV Report:

The one channel i can't connect with my indoor is Channel 10 (ABC) at the 20 mile mark. I assume its due to the first floor indoor setup i am using and now that i have saved for the year with OTA viewing want to upgrade and install either an Attic or Roof mount.

I have read a bunch and really there are just too many to choose from. Seeing recommendations for other folks it would appear that this is the place to come for a true recommendation for a setup.

So in a nutshell, based on my TV report, what would be my best approach to receive yellow and green channels at about 150 degrees with the highest quality?

Thanks in advance.
