Since your channels are spread across a wide range of directions, it's likely that you will need to re-aim the antenna from time to time. It's mostly a matter of luck if you can find a sweet spot that actually lets you get almost all the channels without touching the antenna.
The optimum direction for each channel may be different. You might be able to find a spot that lets you get most of the channels, but if you notice any channel instability or breakups, you can probably improve the stability on individual channels by moving the antenna.
For indoor antennas, the PHDTV1 is about as good as it gets for set-top sized UHF-only antennas. A 2-bay bowtie antenna will do better for UHF, but it's much bigger (really an outdoor antenna being used indoors). Neither of these was really designed to help with VHF stations. The FV-HD30 and CS2 are also primarily UHF antennas. However, all your stations are incredibly close and strong, so you may find that the VHF stations work even if you use an antenna that is not so good at VHF.
The next better antenna over the Silver Sensor as far as small set-top sized antennas go would be a Terk HDTVi. It's a Silver Sensor clone that includes a set of rabbit ears for picking up VHF stations. Don't get the HDTVa (amplified version of the HDTVi) because you have so many strong stations that any antenna's built-in amp would get overloaded.
