It is possible for you to pick up a translator of KMSP to get FOX in HD. As a bonus, you will able to also get translators for the other Minneapolis/St. Paul stations.

After KEYC, there are a bunch of stations with wierd call signs in the table portion of your report. They appear to be in several groups, some at about due east with a 1-edge path and some at about due north with a line-of-sight path. The group to the east is licensed to St. James and the group to the north is licensed to Frost. Overall, the St. James translators are stronger at your location than the ones in Frost.

I recommend you install an Antennas Direct XG-91 antenna as high as practical. Given the predicted signal strengths, some might consider this overkill. However, if the translators to the east develop trouble, you can re-aim the antenna northwards to pick up the translators to the north. When pointing east, you will get FOX on 9.1 (HD) carried by K27FI and 9.2 (SD) carried by K29IF.
