Attempted to trim tree branches on my property.
No improvement on RF 12 reception.
Replaced baluns twice on the 2 stacked y10-7-13s resulted in improvement on RF 7.
Still no lock on RF 12.
Silicondust needs signal quality of 50% or better to lock.

As experiment I converted my vertically stacked Y10-7-13 to a horizontal layout using saw horse next to
antenna mount.
Trial and error horizontal distance between the antennas.
11.1 (RF 12) finally locks with horizontal layout.

RF 12 right at digital cliff.
Over time the best spot on roof for RF 12 changed. I may need a separate location and mount for RF 12 longer term :<

Considerable improvement with horizontal array, but you are still behind a hill.

Thank you for the useful conversion chart. Just for fun, I have added dBm values in a Sandbox post.
