based on your tvfool you get very strong signals in your location from a tower that is 50miles away! I'm suprised your unable to pull in channels with a simple rabbit ear antenna attached to your tv.
The antenna that you currently have is good for UHF, but not for VHF....and it fakes its gain via a built in amplifier. Obviously, it wont be able to amplify a signal it cant pull in. Some other antennas may not have a built in amplifier, but do a better job of pulling in weak singals.
Here are 2 excellent quality VHF-hi/UHF yagii antennas (similar to what you have) in all metal construction. They do not have amplifiers.

TV Tuner or TV Capture Card (something like this, but I can't recommend this specific one or not) for a PC will allow you to watch OTA shows on your computer. Get a recording program and you're set. You already own a PC so you're halfway there.
To add: Roku has a program called Plex. You install a small server on the PC where you recorded the show, and the shows will appear on your Roku almost as soon as they're on your computer. You get it free for 30 days and i think it's $5 to buy it outright after that.
