Need help with an antenna for Escondido, CA

I recently moved to Escondido and I'm looking to "cut the cable". It turns out that we're in a decent location be appear to be quite far from all the TV stations.

The report:

I'm mostly concerned getting good reception on HD Channels, but I'm also interested in the analog channels. I'd like to get as many OTA channels as possible. It looks like I'll need something with 60 mile range although many channels are 25-25 miles away.

I listed the antenna height as 12 feet and I'll be putting it on my rooftop. However I don't plan on having a very high mast so that's the max height. At least it will not be within the attic.

As for the antenna itself, I'd like something that's big enough but I'm willing to pay more for a smaller antenna. If it is something like 12 feet long, that's too big! I'm thinking max size of 6-8 feet, hopefully smaller.

What should I get? Thanks!
