Would a C2V without reflector do it, or are the azimuths too far off the bi-directional beamwidth?
Maybe, although a DB4e with a supplemental VHF element (if required) would probably be my preference. The azimuths are fine as the UHF loops of the C2/V have a 70° beamwidth, even with the reflector removed. There are other issues that do need addressing, namely multipath and the tree-obstructed signal path to KMYS, that VHF 5 station, and several high-VHF major stations.

What is the best option for receiving a strong signal for KMYS?
The best option is often not feasible. See http://forum.tvfool.com/showpost.php...26&postcount=2

Seriously, trees have the capability of effectively shredding the signal before the signals ever arrive at the antenna. Just like Humpty Dumpty, all the king's horses and all the king's men and the right antenna and the most capable ATSC tuners around can't put it back together again.

It's important to select a mounting location that minimizes the potential ill effects of trees. It will greatly improve your odds of success.
