Maybe; it depends upon where the antenna will be located.

In your last thread the antenna was inside. It looks like you moved from Glendale to Santa Ana. Your previous thread:
Signal loss ... due to moving people!

An active link to your tvfool report would be more helpful than just an image.

Thank you.

Where will the antenna be located?

Any trees or other buildings in the signal path?

That should be OK. His signals are about 10 dB weaker than yours, but still very strong.

If it doesn't work, the upgrade would be the GE 24792 Attic Mount Antenna.

The next upgrade would be the Antennas Direct C2V.

but there is no antenna that can "see" through trees.
