With your azimuth of 10° you should get WOTV, WXMI, WLLA, WWMT, and WOOD. The others may be impaired due to incorrect aim.
The other problem is the extremely intense signal level of -11.8 dbm from WGVK on channel 5. The best solution is a separate Y5-2-6 antenna for WGKV plus a 20 db attenuator connected to the low band antenna and an HLSJ to combine the two antennas.
If you'd like to try for WGVK with your existing antenna, get two HLSJs and a 20 db attenuator. Feed the antenna into the combined port of one HLSJ, connect the L ports with a short jumper cable, connect the H ports with the 20 db attenuator between them, feed the TV sets with the combined port of the second HLSJ. Use only quad shielded RG-6 for every single cable.
Finally, WZUU FM on 92.5 MHz has a signal strength of -19.7 dbm. The HLSJ trick to deal with WGVK on channel 5 will solve that potential overload problem as well.
