That's what I'd try. An ambitious system would use two Antennas Direct DB8es, widely separated and pointing at 1 and 181. They could be on an A/B switch, or you could use a separate tuner for each with a HTPC to manage program handling. You could probably get WMVS Ch 8 PBS with an additional dedicated VHF high antenna like the Antennacraft Y10713 and pick up WLUK ch 11 Fox on the back side. I would skip trying to get weather channel WIWN ch 5 VHF low. The VHF high antenna could be mounted on the same mast as one of the DBes and the signal combined with the UHF.
