Is there an antenna good for two directions, 180 degrees apart?

I live between the Kansas City, and Columbia MO area.

KC is entirely UHF, Columbia is UHF, with 2 VHF Hi stations. There's a third VHF hi (K110J) in Columbia, but I am unconcerned with it. For that matter, I've never heard of any of the stations listed in purple font on the signal analysis page.

I bought a house a few years ago, and just recently hooked up to the antenna "just because it's there". If I had to guess, I'd say it's as old as the house (~30yrs), missing a few elements, and the rotator does not presently work.

Is there a good antenna for pulling from two opposite directions? I'm a little new to this, so correct me if I'm wrong, but what I should be looking for is one with as low of a front to back ratio as possible, right? Or am I stuck on needing either a rotator and picking which stations I want to watch, or needing two antennas?
