KGO (7.1) reception issue Palo Alto, CA 94301

Hi
I put up a DB4 antenna 18ft off the ground to see what I can get -- I can reliably receive all channels listed @ tvfool for my address (zip 94301) except KGO (7.1). The signal strength (as measured in arbitrary units by my sharp TV) is approx 25 units compared to 50 to 60 units for KNTV, KQED, KPIX, KTVU channels.

My question: Is this because of the channel KGO is transmitting at ? (perhaps DB4 has poor gain at this frequency?) OR is KGO transmitting at a lower power level since i get other channels transmitted from the same location (Sutro tower in SF) just fine.
