An omni is actually the exact opposite of what is needed for the best chance in a nearly impossible situation. Yo want a very directional, very focused antenna that can zero in on whatever signal might be there.
First off, the mountain almost always wins. When you get double teamed by mountains and trees, your already meager odds plummet. Do not get your hopes up, that is a dismal forecast and your description of your surroundings reinforces my pessimism.
Now, with expectations properly sent to the basement, a question or two:
1. Did you use the "accurate method" of getting your location and plot (precise) or did you use a standard address look-up (often wildly inaccurate)?
2. Using the accurate method, click on the box foe "show lines". Can you manipulate the balloon marker to a location that is tree-free in any of the potential directions?
