I know bigger is better but over kill is just that. Will I be better off with 7084 or 8200?
What is yalls recmendation?

Thank you.

It sounds as if you have the space for a very large antenna. The slightly narrower forward beam of the 7084 is still wide enough to aim at the two groups of signals south of your location... The performance difference is not extreme by any means, but the 7084 has a dB or more gain relative to the 7082. Either will work.
