The stacker is a combination VHF/UHF antenna. The Utica and Syracuse stations are all UHF. The one VHF station worth receiving is aimed in a different direction. The stacker aims both antennas in the same direction. The gain of the stacker is probably too low for the Syracuse stations. Those factors suggest that a stacker would disappoint you.

The cheapest way to go between Syracuse and Utica is an A/B switch. There is no cheap and efficient way to combine them. You can combine a VHF antenna for WWNY with the Utica antenna, and get a full compliment of networks without a switch.
