This all channel antenna will cost the same or less then a antenna that receives 7 thru 13 and 14 thru 69.

Channel 6 (Analog) is rebroadcast in DT on channel 23.
There is actually a 50 degree spread for all needed channels (VHF and UHF). However both needed VHF stations are broadcasting from 201 degrees, and they are both rated "2 edge" (my house is built into the side of the hill which the antenna on the 20 foot mast will have to reach out over the edge of to pick these up). It may need to be more directly pointed at these stations than TV fool shows?
All the UHF Stations make up a 28 degree spread.
Would the HD7084P still be best? It appears it is designed to pickup a lot of channels that are not broadcast in my area, and might be too directional to pickup the VHF stations when not pointed towards them? I'm new too all this so if I'm mistaken please explain.
I'm leaning towards the Tripod mount, I would imagine it would be more sturdy than the block mount. Although it appears that the block mount has been working fine for quite some time now.
