Signals are fairly strong where you are, but CBS (WTSP) lies in a different direction from the other transmitters. I would use a Winegard HD-7694P antenna mounted due east (90 degrees) from your location plus an AntennaCraft Y-5-7-13 mounted 4' above it on the same mast aimed due north (roughly 10 degrees) to pick up WTSP. Use a Channel Master Channel 10 JoinTenna (available cheaply on Amazon) to combine the signals from the two antennas, and you will enjoy perfect reception on at least 15 channels.
