The CS4 is a very capable UHF only design. Other bow-tie designs are also UHF only, though a few (CM-4228) will offer some H-VHF capability.

The HBU series of antennas are designed to cover both UHF and H-VHF. The HBU-55 is the most capable of the series, with the greatest gain. In the attic, you'll need every bit of gain you can find in an antenna. Amplifier gain is not the same, it adds some noise to the signal, antenna gain does not.

You could try the CM-4228 which will have very good UHF performance. If you don't succeed with the signal on real CH-12, would you have room for an Antennacraft Y10713?
