And if that is the plan ultimately, is the HBU22 a good choice to start off with? Maybe a Winegard 7694?

Thank you again everyone. I'll be sure to keep you updated as this project progresses.
The HD7698P would be the antenna to try as a single antenna solution if trying for the Denver signals hoping for reception of the locals through the back. (A good idea IMO.)

@Hippie, If you're eventually going after the Denver signals, why not try the signal antenna solution. If it works, you skip spending money on a second antenna and HDHR. If the Denver signals are less than reliable with the 7698, turn it around at the locals and have more than enough signal.
