Reception issue in San Jose, CA

Hello,
I am new to OTA HDTV, and I just installed an AntennasDirect DB8 on my roof. Unfortunately, the results have not been as good as expected. I am in area code 95130. The problem is that I do not receive ch. 2.1, 9.1, and 11.1. Actually, I do receive 2.1 and 9.1, just not at that location. Instead, I receive them at their actual frequency. Ch. 11.1 I do not receive at all. The strange thing is that those channels supposedly have higher strength than others I receive. I tried moving the antenna around on the roof but the results are the same. I do have a large tree in front of the antenna.

Now I am starting to think that I should try a different antenna, possibly one that has both high VHF and UHF, like the Winegard 769P4 or P7. Any other suggestion?
