Strong VHF Signal - No Picture

I have a Winegard HD8200U installed in the attic. All the local stations have excellent signal strength, but Channel 3 (real) (15 Virtual) does not appear when the TV scans for stations.

Using the Emitor DigiAir Pro ATSC meter, channel 3 yields a 58 dBuV signal strength. However, the BER and SNR readings will not lock.

The engineer at the station suggests that the ATSC pilot at 60.31 MHz is not being seen by the TV's tuner.

Upon the advice of Sven at Emitor, I have now installed 4 LTE filters at the antenna and was able to receive the station for a short period of time, but not consistently. Another LTE filter is on order.

A cell tower is located approximately .7 mile from the house.

The antenna has been moved both horizontally and vertically as well as rotated.

Any thoughts as to other actions to take ?
