Attic Antenna in east side Cleveland

Hi All,

Was wondering if the Winegard HD7698P would be the ticket for me to pull in all of the Cleveland stations (all are in "yellow") here:

Basically they are all around 234 degrees, so I think I should be good with not needing a multi-directional. Need something UHF/VHF as there are 2 major channels still broadcast on VHF. The problem child is WOIO-19 CBS, weakest signal of the group. Was hoping to get that channel as well so I can see how bad the Browns look next season....... Looks like the HD7698HD has the gain needed, considering signal loss in attic too.

I have a huge space in the attic for this to fit, roof is standard OSB and asphalt shingles. Neighborhood would frown on me for mounting an antenna outside. Cable is RG6, approximately 70ft, 2 couplers. Would split to 2 TVs only. I pretty much have a clear view where the antenna needs to be pointed.

I tried a Clearstream 2V w/ Antennacraft 30db booster and get channel 3 NBC and 5 ABC with 90+ SS, other channels are 40-55% SS, WOIO19 is AWOL.

Appreciate any input!
