Considering the RCA ANT751 antenna

[comfortably_numb]

Anybody have any experience with one of these? Should I use a pre-amp with it? If so, what make/model?

The AntennaCraft HBU11 is the same antenna, much cheaper. $18 for the antenna by itself or $25 to include a J-Pole from Solid Signal.

It is a decent antenna for close to medium range if you need VHF. Need to see a Tvfool report to give pre-amp advice.

I have an indoor Turk amplified antenna in the attic presently; it receives all the channels in the green circle + KMOS which is in the red circle. I'd like to get KRBK and KODE if I can, but they're kinda far. There are actually quite a few VHF stations close to my metro as well; I don't even get a blip on those presently.

I honestly don’t think you can do any better than you are now. Both KRBK and KODE are indeed to far away for reliable reception if any at all.

To go after the VHF channels in the red would require a large roof top antenna.

You have a lot of strong signals from your local channels that you may risk overload if you use a pre-amp.

Your Terk is probably all you need if it is getting all the green and the 1 red reliably.

Sounds like I'm all set then. Thanks guys!
