I am now using a SiliconDust HDTC-2US as a diagnostic tool.

91XG + 50ft RG6 + HDTC-2US

RF Strength Strength Signal Quality
29 80 90
43 73 78
44 75 67-78
45 81 85

91XG + RCA TVPRAMP1R + 100ft RG6 + HDTC-2US

29 100 98
43 100 85
44 100 73-81
45 100 90

I still experience intermittent reception
on KTVU (RF44). The stations on RF43, RF44 and RF45 come from Sutro Tower.
Could multipath interference still be an issue dispite deploying
the Antennas Direct 91XG? The RF44 flutuating signal quality looks suspious.
Signal quality on R29,RF43 and RF45 are stable.

Aiming between trees to hill crest limits my roof antenna placement.
Once I get a better mast, I will resume adjusting high. Right now using the
saw horse and pvc pole.

If it is multipath interference, I read stacking a 2nd 91XG may help.
I don't expect perfect reception. Just fewer intermittent events.

I agree using a chainsaw on the near trees would help
