Best antenna fir my area with signal map

Hello all,
I am new here and completely illiterate to the digital TV antenna world.
I recently purchased an RCA ANT751 and a Mediasonic HW-150 PVR Homeworks Digital TV converter.
I installed the antenna on my roof, approximately 20 feet off the ground. The Mediasonic unit must have been defective from the manufacturer.
I was not able to get any image or even a menu with the Mediasonic.
I purchased an RCA DTA800B1 digital converter and it magically worked perfect.
It appears to be a very basic converter but works well. Nice clear picture and audio.
I received 7 channels with no antennae adjustment.
I was able to receive most of the major networks, NBC,ABC,FOX, PBS and some other channels like Bounce and Retro.
I can tune in to CBS if I adjust the antenna toward that towers direction, but i loose the other channels.
Are there any suggestions on an antenna that may capture the signal from multiple towers.
Perhaps the Winegard HD7694P High Definition VHF/UHF Antenna or the Antennas Direct DB4E Antenna.
I have no clue if I need UHF or VHF or both.
The link to my are maps and channels are below...
I would like to stay away from a motorized rotators if possible.
