I don't see any reason that you wouldn't get that channel with the dipole but there are exceptions that always get in our way. I have 3 VHF station I get with my dipole. Two of them have no where near as strong a signal as yours but the difference is that I'm on the roof and there are some large trees in my path.
WMTW-DT 8 (8.1) ABC 26.5 miles 1Edge 44.6NM(db)
WENH-TV 11 (11.1) PBS 44.6 miles 2Edge 12.9NM(db)
WCBB-DT 10 (10.1) PBS 48.9 miles 2Edge -1.2NM(db)
I find it odd as well that Antennas Direct would recommend a stainless steal antenna for someone that planned on putting it in the attic. I believe its 2+ times the price of the normal DB4e.
I agree that a preamp may be to strong.... especially on the roof.
