Per your TVFR, none of the UHF signals from Mt. Wilson have any reasonable chance of reliable reception. Given your question,

so what about just a high band VHF antenna pointed in that direction to pick up the four channels in that range?

I'm only interested in getting that handful of LOS stations.
, the High-VHF is a reasonable approach.

The HD7084 would work well as a 2 through 13 VHF and would very likely add the signal from K39GY, a TBN (Christian programing) low power station. The UHF capability of the 7084 would go to waste if you connect it to a UVSJ.
