Ok, so is it possible to have both my current antenna pointed in one
direction (minus the UHF section) and use this new antenna pointed in a
different direction? Then just combine the signal? This would give me
the best of both world w/o the need for a rotor.

Sure. Back in the dark ages, when the UHF channels went up to Channel
83, TV sets didn't have a combined antenna input, instead they had
two (usually 300 ohm) inputs, one for each band. To save cable,
VHF/UHF splitter/combiners were used if you had an all band antenna.
They're bidirectional, the same unit can be used either way. So you
can run two antennas into the one cable.
