Would an antenna direct DB4/8 work in my situation?

I'd be skeptical of proper performance with an attic mount antenna in North Adams. Consider a wall or eave mount. The mast then extends above the roof. That avoids both leaky roofs and the losses through the walls.

If I lived at your house I'd use two antennas, the Winegard HD 5030 for VHF and an 91XG for UHF, using a Winegard AP 2870 preamp to add the antennas together. I'd aim both of the antennas at the Albany stations, ignoring the signals from Mt. Greylock.
The DB4/8 is the wrong antenna for North Adams.
