If I need a long boom and mount it on the roof should I put in a rotor?

What about reaching stations to the far south of me if it is external and I use a rotor? Is it possible?
What would you recommend for a new antenna? I plan to split to 4-5 TVs
Thanks in advance.
Your signals are too weak for an attic installation, plan on a roof mount. You'll want a preamp.

Two antenna options are

Winegard HD7698P with AP 8700 preamp.

Y10-7-13 for VHF plus a 4-8 bay UHF with a AP 2870 preamp.

A 7777 preamp will also work with either antenna.

The stations to the south are too weak, a rotator offers no advantages.
