KDKA's signal is weak and 2 edge. It is normal for such signal to fade slightly. The other stations ("all channels")are not in the main beam of the antenna, so multipath is likely on those stations.
The question is what to do about it. You need a bit more signal from KDKA, but your antenna is as big as practical. Your feedline is new and RG6, the strong local stations prevent the use of a preamp.
If I lived in your house I'd get a channel filter tuned to channel 25, and use an HDP-269 preamp with the filter installed between the antenna and the preamp. The filter will prevent overload of the preamp.
