What John said about receiving your stronger stations from the back side of the antenna should work if you have an unobstructed view.
I have a very similar situation where I'm receiving a 27 NM(dB) station 20 miles away, high VHF channel 12, over very hilly terrain thru the backside of an eight bay panel antenna. I'm now using the same pre amp he suggested to you which is a very good one the CPA 19, but I had no problem getting that station with the antenna alone. The other stations I receive from the front of the antenna are 40 to 65 miles away and come in very well.
