You have a nice location... A mid sized combination antenna like this http://www.solidsignal.com/pview.asp...0Antennas&sku= aimed at 179° according to you compass should provide signal enough to drive a passive (no amplifier needed) 2 or 3 way splitter. It will tend to favor FM from the south but not block from other directions.

20' of clearance from the A/C unit should be more than enough to minimize reception pattern problems. Hopefully the trees are not due south of the proposed antenna location, but even if they are you have good reason to expect success.
