+1 for GUM's suggestion. Personally, I might run with a HBU55.

The ANT751 is not the antenna that is ideal for a 11.5 db signal with a 2-edge obstruction. I'm actually amazed you got the ANT751 to see the signal at all. I've found with mine, the bleeding edge of reception performance is about 15 - 17 db signal strength in line of sight conditions (no preamp on mine). Bringing in 1 or 2 edge into the equation on anything below 25 db or so and you are better investing in stronger antenna that is built for weak signals. The ANT751 while a nice effective local to suburban antenna with line of sight, you are well beyond its performance capabilities asking it to provide reliable reception of WLKY.

Cheers,
