I don't know what they do
Also, since the Channel Master is both VHF and UHF, could it pick up some UHF stations?

You most certainly could have a bad balun. A balun matches the impedence of the antenna to the impedence of the coaxial cable. You could also have a bad connection at the balun. Or at the coaxial connectors. Or the coaxial cable itself if it got water inside. Maybe even loose connections on some of the antenna hardware such as the phasing rods. Maybe someone who has this antenna could comment further.
Your CM antenna should pick up both VHF and UHF stations.
