Hi, first post.
I'm in an older house in 14214 area code. I have an existing antenna that is missing most of its tines, and would like to replace it and also avoid a rotator.

With some luck that link to location will work. At this stage, I'm thinking a high VHF/UHF long range antenna pointed NW, and a UHF pointing SE would, in theory, cover most of the digital stations I would like to get.
The house is at a higher point in the city, and a two story, so I think a 30 fit estimate is conservative.
Winegard 769P with an HD-1080 on the same tripod mast is what I'm considering.
I'd also like to improve my FM reception while I'm at it so a HD-6010 would be an option, if not on the same mast, in the attic or alternate mast.
It seems that every installer wants to put the same single antenna with a rotator. I do not want another remote, and have no place to put another box.
Still, I'm just diving in at the moment and am certain there are a myriad of issues I'm not considering. Most info regarding spacing on a single mast talks in terms of ghosting, which wouldn't be an issue for digital stations.
Thanks in advance for any input. I know it must get old. Cheers.
