If you can consider a tower or other means to safely mount higher, it would be helpful to see a TVFR based on the higher AGL.

If I were starting from scratch, using the 25' AGL signal predictions, I'd opt for a big all channel antenna such as the Winegard HD8200U and a high input preamp such as the Winegard HDP-269 or the Antennas Direct CPA-19.

If your existing antenna does not have bent or broken parts and the connection terminals are not corroded, you may want to try adding a preamp before replacing the antenna.
thanks!! a few of the vhf elements are bent.
