You have signals from two directions on both VHF and UHF bands. There is one and only one antenna that's ideal for you, the Winegard HD-1080. When you aim it at the UHF stations the VHF stations will also be optimum because the HD-1080 has better VHF pickup backwards from the UHF lobe, which just happens to be exactly what you need.

With an outdoor antenna you can't use a preamp, the signals are too strong.
