Need help with antenna selection

Good evening folks. I gave up cable TV 6 years ago. Since then, I've been using a Radio Shack uni-directional (flying saucer) antenna with surprisingly good results. I was getting about 40 channels with pretty decent reception. Out of those 40 or so, at any given time 75% of them were coming in fine. In the last few months reception has been deteriorating to the point that I have maybe 25% at a time that are watchable. And some will come in fine now, but in an hour, not so much.
So, I'm assuming the signal amplifier (included with the antenna) is toast, or the antenna itself is. I'd kinda like to go with another non-directional antenna because I'd rather avoid the expense and complexity of a rotor if at all possible. Here's my TvFool report.

I figure, if the RS antenna kept me happy for 5 or 6 years, an antenna from a better manufacturer would make me happy, and last more then 5 or 6 years. What is your opinion?
I appreciate your help folks!
