The ANT-751 will have less gain and no intentional design support for reception of real channels 2 through 6. It simply does not fit your application the way an antenna designed for 'all channel' reception will.

If you opt for a small all channel antenna such as the HD7000R, you'll be increasing the risk of less reliable reception of the weaker signals that are available to you.

A preamp will help overcome cable and splitter losses. This is not a problem for the strong signals listed on your report, but the weaker signal are going to be in need of amplification if they're to make it all the way from the antenna to the tuners.

I would take teleview's advise on this, and go with the 7082.
