Signals do odd things indoors, which probably explains the cabinet door.
I didn't see what type of indoor antenna you are using.
ABC on Channel 7 is VHF and that might be an issue receiving it if your antenna is UHF only.
Probably the best thing to try for wciu is to move the antenna to a new location. Even though you are high in the air and close to the transmitters, the tall buildings around you cause reflections and create a situation called mulipath where the direct wave and a reflected wave interfere with each other destructively.
another possibility is your antenna is powered then it's overloaded.
