What I find odd however is that having the antenna pointed at 68-70 degrees, I pick up both Prov. 12 and 64 without any issue at all. (strange)
It's actually not very strange at all. UHF Yagis, when a VHF signal hits the boom somewhat broadsided, tend to pick up those VHF signals far better than expected. The boom serves as the resonant element and then re-radiates into the pickup. Also, your VHF signals are moderately strong and VHF signals are impacted far less by trees than are UHF signals.

It's a combination of factors.
