The C5 does "better" on UHF than a lot of forum regulars might expect, but it's certainly not the antenna for this location as the UHF signals are way too weak for anything other than a directional UHF antenna aimed at KC. You can point the C5 at St Joe for channel 7 if you're interested in it.
91XG, DB8, DB8e, or C4 are all viable candidates to the job. Add a sensitive, fringe area preamp like the PA18 and see if you can find a spot where you have a decent signal path to KC. FYI, trees plus weak UHF signals usually is a recipe for frustration, so do the best you can.
Cheers!
