best of the best, ???
I was trying to be gracious when I said the 5016 was 'valid'. With UHF gain of 7.5 dBi, it's a step down from the CS2 which specs at 10.2 dBi. The 5016 would offer some improvement in the High VHF band over the existing dipole. But when there are no L-VHF signals to be received, one has to wonder why so much emphasis is being placed on installing L-VHF capability that may well be pointing in the wrong direction if a future L-VHF signal comes on the air.
It's up to the OP to decide if the UHF performance of the CS2 is adequate in their application. If it is, then the sub $40 Y10713 seems to be a reasonable option to improve H-VHF reception, certainly more reasonable than the $89.99 Channel Master is asking (for a lower performance option).
As ADTech has suggested, installing an FM trap may be the cheapest solution all together.
