Even though you *might* get a VHF channel through a UHF antenna (if the signals are strong enough), it's a little silly to try and use the wrong antenna for the job when so many better options exist.
Since you also have one low-VHF channel (WUOA, channel 6, virtual 23.1), you ought to consider a full bandwidth antenna like the Winegard HD7080P.
BTW, the amp you're using is designed for use in cable systems. It is designed for bi-directional operation (allowing certain "upstream" frequencies back through to the cable network, like cable modem and/or video-on-demand control signals), which is not normally used for OTA applications.
Many regular OTA amps like the Channel Master 7777, Winegard 8700, or Antennacraft 10G202 have better technical specs (lower Noise Figure) than the Rocketfish amp. The proper amp can improve the stability/robustness of your setup on the weaker stations.
