You could get the ABC and PBS to the Northeast with a small antenna, possibly in the window. That will just make you want more. Having all networks is nice.
There is something to be said for spending $40, putting the antenna in the window and calling it done though.
Unfortunately CBS is VHF Low, which means you'll need a big old school pointy thing.
A clearstream 4V with the little add-on VHF bar
might be able to pull in the VHF High NBC and PBS if you were willing to do without CBS, but at that distance I have my doubts.
Your best shot at getting all the stations is this big ugly thing pointing south.

If the cable run from it is any distance at all, add this amplifier (I would add it anyway):

If the signal is split between multiple TVs in the house, you'll probably need a distribution amplfier as well.
I would see if the other items pay off before buying that though.
So you're looking at $250-$300 to start. I think it will work, but there are no guarantees. Especially if you have large trees close to the house in that direction.
Antennas Direct has a 90 day return policy and can advise you on what antenna they think would work best:
https://www.antennasdirect.com/return-policy.htmlThey don't sell that style VHF/UHF antenna though, so you'd end up having to buy separate VHF and UHF antennas, plus a combiner from them.
You could just get the Clearstream 4V, see how you like the UHF channels and decide whether it is worth adding VHF later.
That's my $.02
Someone else might have different ideas.
If you decide to drop the money and get all your signals, then we can talk about spending even more money on DVRs with program guides for a more cable like experience.
I do find that I get more out of over the air TV when I can record things and watch them when I want. (can also skip commercials)
EDIT: The Channel Master website has the antenna I linked to above for the same price, but with an amplifier included:
