Meanwhile, this morning a friend of mine who is moving to a place where he can't use his antenna said I'm free to take his Channel Master 4228HD (8 bay - I think he said that). Would that be an alternative? After you pouring much information, hope this question is not offensive :-)

I agree, a free antenna is hard to pass up. The 4228 is not ideal if you had to spend hard earned cash, but mounted to face 80° (compass) you may well find it satisfies your needs. The signal from CFTO on real channel 9 is strong enough that I would be surprised if you had trouble receiving it reliably.
