If you want as many stations as possible it's worth trying for Syracuse. The antenna height doesn't make enough difference to install a tower. I'd get a 91XG, aim it at Syracuse, connect it to a 7777 preamp, and see what you get.
To get Utica stations may require a rotator or a second UHF only antenna such as a DB-2 or DB-4. WWNY is also possible with a Y10-7-13 connected to the VHF input of the 7777 preamp. There's no need to turn the VHF antenna.

Really, really appreciate the response and the suggestions.
You mentioned 3 separate antennas. WWNY is not worth the cost of another antenna to me so, my final question would be, how would I install a 91XG and DB-4 on the same mast and would I connect both to the preamp?
I had a response "offline" that said "the stacker" would get me the Utica and Syracuse channels. I found that antenna...is that a viable option also?
Man, I thought this was going to be easy! You guys are worlds above me in this stuff!
Thanks again
