3rd Antenna Still a Problem

Hi,
I live close to the broadcast towers, 9.4-9.6 miles. Antenna is chimney mount on 2nd story. Channel 9-1 pixels in/out. Sometimes signal drops. Other channels are good. Current unit is a Winegard HD7697. It is pointed at the two towers 42 & 40 degrees. Directly in the path are large trees, 100 ft away, 60+ ft high.

Other issues, the cable runs from the antenna to a grounding splitter, then to the set top tuner. Also used previously a ChannelMaster 4221HD. Same issues on 9-1.

Should I run one cable directly to the tuner bypassing the outside grounding splitter? Try another antennna?
