The CS reflector kit lists for $19.99. It will improve your high-VHF capability. But, again, experimenting with mounting locations seems the most appropriate 1st step.
Ok...
From a mounting standpoint, the only thing I can change is the height by adding another pole to the one I already have. The antenna is mounted in my backyard facing away from the home. My home is on the side of a slope... so the direction I am looking in should not be obstructed by many homes (only a few), instead there are a few trees in the LOS.

Even if I mount the antenna high, adding the reflector will not get me VHF highs.. correct?
