Could i go to a H-Vhf bow tie antenna smaller unit with more DB even if i add an amplifier to get more db out of it and if so.? what would you recommend?

Which make and model of H-Vhf bow tie antenna are you thinking of? The available panel antennas that I'm familiar with offer some VHF capability are primarily UHF antennas, their VHF performance is significantly less than the Y10713 (which is the current consumer grade 'big gun' H-VHF option). (When you mention 'H-Vhf bow tie', I think of old antennas such as this huge array from the 1950's:

No amplifier will add gain to the antenna. Amplifiers can only 'push' signal through the loss of cable and splitters on the output of the amp. (In some cases, an amplifier may help overcome some of the internal noise of a tuner.)

I'd try higher, to see if you can make both RCH-11 and RCH-13 reliable with a single aim point.
