FM Antenna positioning question


I am considering purchasing a Radio Shack (6 element) antenna, it is only $24; I am using a dipole now. I have a small station a little ways away that I occasionally enjoy, but I have to fight static a lot.

My question is this, this station is to my west, this is most likely the only station I will listen to that is to my west, all other stations are powerful stations to my north or southeast. If I point this antenna to the west, will these other stations still come in?

I'd die and go to heaven if I had 2 antenna inputs on anything. Rotors are slooowww, and really a PITA, IMO. With a good indoor, you can rotor it yourself, by hand. With 2, you're home free. Not to product pimp, but I'm having excellent results with the godar antenna.

Get good quality coax, cut to length, with canare connectors and skip the coupler. I'm using blue jeans cable; to pimp another product. I also have a bybee in-line on the cable, and have burnt both of them in with a frycleaner.
