Antenna recommendation - SW of Chicago

Hi all
I recently ditched ComCast TV and need to install a better antenna for OTA. I am currently using an RCA flat panel antenna which does a pretty good job of picking up most of the major networks from downtown Chicago, plus a couple of others. However I can't receive WBBM (VHF 12 real) or WTTW (UHF 47 real) which, of course, are the two channels I usually watch the most.

I would like to install a new antenna in the attic and I appreciate that there are no guarantees there. My TV Fool report is here:

I currently receive (with the flat antenna next to the TV downstairs) all the green channels in the list, with the exception of WBBM (12) and WTTW (47). If I can get those two additional channels as well as the other "green" ones, I'll be happy. I am approximately 28 miles from the Transmitters on the Willis and Hancock towers.
Thanks in advance for any help or advice.
