So another update. I borrowed a signal loss/gain meter from a co-worked, and from the antenna to the TV I'm only losing about 1.2db. When I was playing around, I decided to re-scan for channels and it looks like I'm actually receiving CBS now, I must have tweaked the aim and not re-scanned. Using the signal strength indicator on the TV, I played around a bit with the aim, and I was able to get NBC and CBS, but not at the same time.
I decided I would try out the Pre-amp to see if that helped. I had to return the ladder I was borrowing yesterday, so I decided to see if I could get it to work I would get what I could from RadioShack. I ended up with this:

After installing everything, it appeared to be DOA, I lost all of the channels I had. I'm not sure if it was blocking the signal, or if something was disconnected within one of the units. I removed it and all of the channels came back. I'm going to return the unit and order the recommended unit from Amazon, hopefully I can get my hands on another ladder.
Slowly but surely.
