Rick is definitely correct about the need for a rotator and a high-gain UHF antenna and a rotator. It appears that you are in between the Cleveland and Youngstown TV markets, with some pretty rugged terrain in either direction.
You will need a VHF antenna in any event to see CBS and NBC from Youngstown, and FOX and CBS from Cleveland. I would suggest a combination of a DB8E for UHF and a Stellar Labs 30-2476 deep fringe VHF high-band antenna plus a combiner, and a preamplifier like the AntennasDirect PA-18. With this combination, you should be able to point the array in one direction and get all the Youngstown stations, and turn the array towards Cleveland and get all their stations.
As for which rotator to use, the very best one is the Hy-Gain AR-40, which is very heavy duty and should last for years, however, it is pricey at $325.00. The Channel Master 9521 is a good, lower-cost choice, at about $100.00 but is not as heavily built. Good Luck!
