Is my reception about what I should expect?

This is what channels TV Fool gave me for my location: http://www.tvfool.com/?option=com_wr...e1c6c108f59d40

I have a VHf-UHf Radio Shack Antenna that is quite large that I bought 25 years ago but am not sure of the model number. I also have a seperate UHF Winegard PR8800 that I purchased two years ago. Both antennas are mounted on the same mast and are about 20 ft high. The VHF-UHF antenna is pointed at 255 Degrees and the UHF antenna is pointed at 75 Degrees. I have a two into one splitter and this goes into my basement into a 24 db amplifier that splits the signal into two branches. One branch goes to one tv and the other branch goes to a wire that goes into six rooms and some are connected to tv sets in the six rooms. All the wiring I use is RG59.

I am receiving most of the channels listed on the TV Fool chart that are at 255 degrees and 75 degrees but some have weak signals.

The channels I am receiving:

2.1
2.2
2.3
5.1

5.3
6.1
6.2
7.1

39.2
43.1

54.2
54.3
54.4
54.5
54.6
68.1
68.2
68.3
68.4

Does anyone have any idea if I have done this correctly or is there any way I could improve on what I have done?

Thanks in advance!
