No. 6, the HDB91X, doesn't have as much UHF gain as No. 4, the DB8E, but it should give you Fox, PBS, and NBC if aimed at 138 degrees magnetic.

You need a second antenna, like the MCM 30-2475 or 30-2476, for KFMB and KGTV aimed at 175 degrees magnetic.

You need TWO antennas.

There is no ONE antenna that will give you both UHF and VHF in different directions.

If you are looking for a guarantee from me, I'm not able to give one; too many variables that might ruin reception.

You will need to experiment. Try each antenna alone before combining to see if it will give you the channels you want.
