Reception Issues Eden PrairieMN

I an trying to resolve some sporadic reception issues with a channel here. The biggest issue is getting good reception on the NBC station(KARE) on one television. I am getting good reception on all other channels.
I have an Antennae Direct DB4 antennae on the roof with about a 25 ft cable run to a
RadioShack® High-Gain HDTV-FM Signal Amplifier. There are two cable runs from the amp.
One cable run is about 50 ft to a digital to analog converter box to an analog TV. The NBC station comes in very well there with no dropouts or pixelation. The signal meter on the converter box shows a 'GOOD' signal (about 75 to 80% of total measure).
The other TV connected via about 75 feet of cable to a digital(plasma) TV in the basement. On this TV, the NBC station comes in sporadically. More often than not, it pixelates or is totally gone.
Utimately, I plan to add another TV which will be another 50 foot cable run and am a bit concerned that when that happens, I will got any signal on that TV.
Here is my TV Fool signal analysis:

Any ideas?
Do I need a different antennae?
Another applifier?
