According to your TVool.com report, you should be seeing all the Chicago stations, as well as South Bend, and, yes, with the right antenna , you should see WWMT with the right antenna. I suspect that your home-made antenna isn't gong to do much for you on VHF, and WWMT is on VHF channel 8. If this was my system, I would use a Winegard HD-7697P mounted on your roof along with a good rotator like a Channel Master 9521a or an AntennaCraft TDP-2.. I would also use a high-input preamplifier like a Winegard HDP-269, which will cover your coax line losses and will power up to 4 TV sets from the antenna if you want to add them. You should see all the Chicago stations, South Bend, and the Grand Rapids stations if you use the rotator to turn the antenna.
I have a feeling that you will be amazed at what you've been missing.
