Winky,
Be thankful that you're not in Braxton or Webster County, as you would get exactly zero in many places. I will have to disagree with celticpride - that antenna will definitely not work for you. You should also think about mounting your antenna higher than 10 feet, as that will help with WOAY and WVNS.

You have stations in the high-VHF and UHF bands. Interestingly, your VHF stations are more to the east than your UHF stations, which are more to the north. That leads me to suggest a two antenna solution if you don't want to use a rotator. A single antenna will work if you don't mind having to aim the antenna all the time.

2 antenna solution: for VHF - get an Antennas Direct C5 or an AntennaCraft Y5-7-13 and mount it so it points at about 80 degrees. For UHF, get a Channel Master 4221 HD and aim it at 25 degrees. Combine the feeds with a UVSJ and run the cable to your TV.

1 antenna solution: get a Winegard 7696P and a rotator.

If WVVA's translator on 43 has not signed on yet, you'll need to try to get their main signal from Bluefield on 46. That would probably mean going with the one-antenna solution.

The B-B-OH market is not put together well for simple OTA. Good luck!
