Which leads me back to my original request for a read on my proposed set-up and recommendation for a combination antenna

After doing a little more research, I'm also inclined to go along with using real channel 5 for NBC.
rabbitears.info seems to be more accurate than tvfool about NBC. CH28 isn't listed and CH29 at 15 kW is a construction permit that expires 4-26-2016. That leaves CH29 at low power.

The coverage for CH29 is very spotty in your area; you happen to be in a hot spot. For your protection, I have deleted all but two digits after the decimal point the way tvfool does it with coordinates in a report.
Here is the coverage map for a location near Bacon Branch Rd and Sliger Rd
at that location CH29 NBC has a NM of 0.4 dB

You could use an antenna that covers VHF-Low, VHF-High, and UHF. Your desire to combine it with a UHF antenna for WETP PBS is not easily done; you would need a special custom AC7 combiner from Tin Lee Electronics. There are some new less expensive combiners coming in from eastern Europe, but their performance is yet to be tested.
