I doubt that the CS2 has enough gain, but you can try aiming it at KTVU and KRON as a test. You would also need a preamp like the Antennas Direct Juice, the Channel Master 7778, Channel Master 7777HD (Amplify), or the RCA TVPRAMP1R. The RCA is the least expensive but has a history of quality control problems.

The Solid Signal HDB91X antenna might have enough gain with a preamp. It also has a tilt adjustment, and is currently on sale:

Consider this as an experiment; no guarantee that it will work.
