Assuming you have a reasonably clear view in all directions and you're going to use a roof mounted antenna and your goal is to pick up the nearest major networks...
I would use a smaller antenna with a wider beam like the one you had in your garage , aim it to the southeast and see if your PBS and CBS stations are able to be picked up thru the backside of the antenna. I have no experience with the C2 regarding upper VHF abilities since your Fox affiliate is broadcasting on real channel 9, but there's plenty of signal in the air and it might be just fine.
Even with a four way splitter and 70' of good RG6 coax there should be plenty of signal arriving at the TV with no need for a pre amp.
The DB8 antenna has a long reaching narrow beam which would be ideal if all your stations were in the same direction and 40 miles away.
If I'm way off on this I'm sure the regular contributors will help out.
