As mentioned, attempting to combine different VHF antennas together would probably not go the way you want it to. WQED is a VHF-LO signal, so the most optimal antenna design for that signal would be longer VHF elements. This somewhat recent www[dot]youtube[dot]com[slash]watch?v=YciUZWdysoE (replace [dot] and [slash] parts) Antenna Man video reviews a specific RCA indoor rabbit ears and loop antenna that has longer VHF elements that are supposedly more VHF-LO capable than typical rabbit ears and loop antennas. Assuming the antenna allows for leaving out the amplifier, try without it first, in case it isn't needed. https://www.solidsignal.com/rca-amplified-indoor-antenna-ant310f https://www.amazon.com/RCA-ANT310Z-Amplified-Indoor-Antenna/dp/B013HJSH46 Note that VHF-LO signals are most prone to electrical interference, so you might also have to put more effort into ensuring that the antenna isn't too close to electrical noise sources, like computers, surge protectors, LED lights, etc. Also note that as mentioned as well, the linear feed for WQED is likely available to stream for free in the PBS app and Prime Video app's live/free section. Lastly, as mentioned in this https://www.reddit.com/r/cordcutters/comments/1g010u3/centralized_collection_of_antenna_tv_signal_meter post, in general, you need to use a signal meter (built-in feature with many different tv's and external tuner devices), when setting up/evaluating your antenna.
