An NBC affiliate looks as if it will be the most challenging 'get' in your situation.
Using an Antennas Direct XG-91 for UHF and an Antennacraft Y10713 or Winegard YA1713 for reception of high-VHF you can receive CBS, MyN, ABC, Fox, PBS, WorldTV and Create networks. You would use a UVSJ to combine the two antennas, and then an Antennas Direct CPA-18 preamp to overcome cable and splitter losses.
Point the XG-91 at about 287° compass. Point the h-VHF antenna at about 266°.
You can try aiming the XG-91 at KDLV, real channel 26, 350° to see if you can receive their NBC and Universal Sports feeds. If that fails, I can only suggest investigating a taller tower. If you see a reliable signal, you could add a rotator (for the second third and forth viewer to complain that the antenna is aimed wrong) or a second XG-91 dedicated to that one signal. An A/B switch or external tuner would be used to select the KDLV signal... combining the two UHF antennas into a common down-lead would require commercial grade CATV head-end system components.
