Deconstructing your report puts you within a stone's throw of the intersection of US 460 and Phillips Hollow Rd. Assuming this is correct:
You have a terrain ridge line about 3/4 mile away in the direction of Lexington that, before trees, is about 325' above your elevation. Your incoming signals from Lexington must diffract over this terrain feature for the final path to your location. However, on the other side of that ridge is a set of several "knobs" that go up to 1350' ASL that the signal must pass through. By the time the signals get to the final ridge, they've already gone through "multipath hell". That ridge is the final insult to the signals.
All that is to illustrate that the signals, before they get to your location will be severely impaired and that there's not a whole lot you can do about it except select the most capable equipment and give it a shot knowing that your odds aren't very good. You'll get what you get when you get it and that's about the best prediction that can be made. When the signals are "good enough" at the input to your tuner, reception will be perfect. Anything less than "good enough" will yield imperfect or no reception at all. Weather, ground conditions, snow cover tree foliage, moisture, temperature, and other such stuff up on those hilltops will affect the ability of the signals to reach you so your reception will be "highly variable".
All that said, your best bet would be the 91XG plus a low noise preamp such as our PA18. The 91XG has the feature of its tilt-able bracket which will allow you to adjust the tilt angle of the antenna which can help when the antenna is located in a terrain hole. You will also likely need a rotor as the 91XG will tend to reject the signals from behind it and your chances of receiving those other stations would be severely diminished, even below their current levels.
Best of luck!
