2. What's the best way to ground the antenna/amp to protect it in the future.
BTW, my signal report is attached below:

Any/all help would be appreciated.

The 7777 still has the highest gain/lowest noise, as far as I am aware.
The easiest way is to run your coax to a ground block very close to where it enters your house. Then you need some grounding wire. You then need to connect the grounding block to your house ground. Also, you need to run another ground wire from somewhere on your mast/antenna to your house ground as well. The grounding wire needs to be as short and direct as possible.
