Opinions on the highest quality, larger high_v/UHF antenna? I'm looking at the HD7698P Platinum HD Series Antenna. Would this suit my purposes are there any better options.

The 7698 is about the best available now if you can do without WJLP Me-TV. The alternative that ADTech mentioned would be separate VHF and UHF antennas.

I am looking at the Channel Master 9521a Rototator. Does anybody have any experience with this roto in terms of longevity, etc.?

The 9521 is popular, but it is considered light duty. If you are only going to use it for initial aim for NYC and leave it there, it would probably do the job. If you are going to rotate the antenna a lot, you will need a ham rotator, but they are more expensive.
If you have a rotator, your TV must be able to add a channel after scan, or you will need to rescan after changing direction. If there is more than one TV, who gets to decide the antenna direction?
Try the antenna without a preamp first. If Fox and NBC are a problem, consider the Juice preamp from Antennas Direct because it is resistant to overload.
