Some questions:
Do you have obstructions around the antenna?
How long is your coax run?
Are you splitting the run to multiple TVs?
Did you use the dish style roof mount included in the box or is the ANT751 on a pole more than 2' above the roof?
Did you use the provided 300 to 75 ohm Transformer from the ANT751 box?
(I ask because some have noted the provided transformer isn't of the highest quality)
I use an ANT751 as part of a two antenna set-up. The ANT751 shoots locals exclusively and a Idaho PBS translator at 55 miles. All signals I use the ANT751 for I am LOS with. I've been really satisfied with it.
Now to your situation. I agree with the suggestion to try the ANT751 first. It should provide you all the major networks in the bay area. Even though you have 1-edge to contend with, you are so close to the transmitters, you should have reasonable signal access at magnetic 352.
Before I suggest you try anything different without knowing the particulars of your set up, I'd further work with aiming. With your strengths available, pointing the ANT751 at about 50 degrees magnetic would be where to start, trying to find a sweetspot between towers that yields all signals. That spot should exist.
I originally had my ANT751 on the dish network style mount. When I went to a two antenna system, I tossed that mount and went to real pole. My ANT751 now sits 25' above ground (5' above the roof) and has clear LOS to the NW, W, SW and S. I've found the ANT751 works best when it has the LOS to work with.
That said, let's get a few more details of your set up before I offer anymore thoughts.
