In addition to fine tuning the aim point, fine tuning the elevation of the antenna can have a measurable effect on signal strength and quality.

Unless the antenna and TV are right next to each other, you're going to need to consider the amplifier. The goal is to take that hard won signal from the antenna and deliver it to the tuner at a level above the noise generated inside the tuner(s).
