Hello idk,
Using your existing dish mount would be a workable here, presuming it is a J-Pole to mount outdoors.
FOX and ION are going to be your most difficult as you have observed. On the plus side CBS, ABC and PBS have smoking signals at your location. This means you can point away from them and likely still receive them even though they are high-VHF.
If I were installing, I'd mount an Antennas Direct DB8e on the J-pole. Be careful to make sure the J pole is strongly mounted and tightened down. Also, how are you with line of sight and trees? These can affect signals greatly.
For the DB8e - I would orientate one panel to magnetic heading 184, with the second panel pointed towards magnetic 58.
A preamp is not advisable here due to such strong close signals.
How many TVs do you intent to serve off the antenna?
Cheers.
