My mind set is usually aimed toward consumer grade solutions... If you can offer a specific recommendation for a higher performance cut-to-channel or cut-to-band L-VHF option, please do.

Yes, the noise produced by power lines, radio systems, computers, vehicles, etc., all tend to impact the L-VHF band disproportionately. So every dB of antenna gain can be critical, when, as in this case, you're starting with a weak signal level in the air.

(Or are you suggesting a DIY solution such as the attached?)
