My 91XG can 'hear' some H-VHF... but the quality of the signal is quite compromised based on the signal measurement capability that's available to me (primarily the utilities that are provided with my SiliconDust HDHR tuners). An Antennacraft Y5713 is far more suited to H-VHF reception, but you would expect that, given it's designed specifically for that purpose. When you consider that there's a difference of 15 dB between the signal on real CH-11 and CH-12 and that the best of those two signals is roughly 30 dB lower than the nominal level a typical tuner is looking for, it's no surprise that the incidental VHF capability of a UHF only design can't deliver real CH-12 at your location.
Looking forward to your results... I'm expecting the CA8100 to provide far more success in the VHF band than any UHF only design can.
Cheers
