The calculations for the Bay area stations are pretty much a SWAG for your location. Doesn't mean you will or won't get them, it just means that with all the various imprecisions in your situation, their reception will definitely be a "YMMV" situation.
That being the case what hardware/configuration do you feel would give the best chance?
