You could go with a 5 ft mast but it may not work as well over the long term.

One person stands on the roof, holding the mast with the antenna connected
to the single tv. The antenna faces SW, toward the Cleveland towers. Another person is inside watching the tv. If the tv has a signal meter, do use it.
You perform a scan as the antenna/mast is held in position. You record, on paper, the # of channels and a few select signal meter readings, if possible.
You communicate to the roof person, their exact position, have them mark/#
the roof with chalk or tape, directly over the position. Repeat multiple times
to ascertain which of the locations on the roof delivered the most channels
with the best signals. It takes time and patience.......
