Save the money on the new preamp and instead spend it on either a db-8 antenna or the lower cost db-4 antenna and combine it with your current tv antenna.
The db antennas will pick up the UHF stations in your area and might also pick up the VHF high band channel too, providing of course that you don't have a bad connection in the system.
Any chance you could post picture of your antenna? That would help a lot.

The antenna is the RCA ANT706 that is discontinued
RCA ANT706 Indoor/Outdoor Stick Antenna (ANT706) | ANT706 [RCA]
Is there an antenna option that will pick up both VHF and UHF signals in my area. I'm not sure that we could get the required height to combine two antennas. Another part of our problem is that our house is surrounded by trees. Thanks again for everyone's help.
