10 foot pole?

Okay, so early this morning I hooked this all up. Awesome! 33 channels came in, even a few from across Lake MI (Green Bay)! All the networks came in really good. 3, 8, 14, and 17.

As the day went on, I lost 17, and now 3, but yet channel 2 from across the lake still comes in.

I am wondering if my own house is getting in the way?, if you see the pictures. If I point at 125 degrees as suggested, it points right toward my 2nd floor.

Question 1: Is the exact degree crucial? If it is pointed slightly the other direction is that okay? Given these towers are a good distance away.

Question 2: I think if I went from 5 foot mast to 10 foot mast I would probably be able to shoot over my roof, but I am not sure if the mount is capable of a 10 foot mast... any ideas?

Or is it just the trees? I have to wait until fall...
