need help 60+ miles NW of St. Louis

Hello, I would greatly appreciate any advice for getting OTA tv reception.

Here is my tvfool report:

http://www.tvfool.com/?option=com_wr...f1f0aae018605c

I'm planning on getting a high gain 150 mile outdoor antenna from ebay (http://www.ebay.com/itm/110940583801...%3AMEBIDX%3AIT) and having it installed on my roof at about 25' above the ground. This is the height at which I did the tv fool report. I am in a bit of a hollow with trees on the hills around me.

I'd like to get as many of the St. Louis channels as I can, and am willing to pay a few hundred up front in infrastructure for the privilege. However, if all I can realistically get is the PBS channel out of Jacksonville, Il, I can survive with that.

Please let me know if the antenna I have in mind is inadequate, and if there is a better one out there. Also, should I get an additional amp or pre-amp?

Thanks!

Lara
