Did you try turning it 180 degrees (facing away from the wall) to receive off the back? I don't think they have much gain, so rejection off the back may not be very much, and you may get good enough signal strength off the back. The VHF dipole won't care either way.

You could also use a panel type UHF antenna, and make a stand. Something like the ClearStream 2V, which has a high-VHF dipole included. Big like a picture on the wall, but lots of gain if you aim it at the wall. Or hang it on the wall.

Just a thought.
