Thanks for all the help
Just wanted to post a follow up and thank everyone for the help: I ended up purchasing an Antennas Direct DB8e. I had originally planned on mounting the antenna on the J pole where the dish receiver was. Since the DB8e was quite a bit larger than I had originally planned(cringe on wife's face), I decided to try an attic mount first. Luckily the direction to the towers I was hoping to pick up was directly out the gable end of my steeply pitched roof. So I mounted the antenna at the end of my attic facing the towers at 40 degrees magnetic with 0 offset in the panels. Figured I would start here and adjust as necessary. I ended up getting every channel I was targeting right out of the gate. So I'm thinking that, at least for now, leaving well enough alone.
