I'd start with the Boston signals. To maximize the opportunity I'd use either an Antennas Direct DB8e or 91XG. Start with the aim basically due south and fine tune it from there.

If you wanted to add WMUR or WENH, an Antennacraft Y10713 can be added.

How many TVs will be connected? How long a run is it from the antenna to the most distant TV... as the cable runs?

Above The Peak Of The Roof install a , Antennas Direct , DB8e , UHF channels 14 thru 51 antenna aimed at about 205 degree magnetic compass direction.

--------------------------------------------------

And for shot at receiving , WMUR-TV channel 9 ABC and WENH-TV channel 11 PBS.

At the same time with one antenna aimed in 1 direction.

Aim a , Antennas Direct , C5 antenna at a in between aim direction of the 2 Tv stations.
Aim the C5 antenna at a in between aim direction of about 340
degree magnetic compass direction.

Here is how to aim antennas, www.kyes.com/antenna/pointing/pointing.html

Use a Real and Actual magnetic compass to aim antenna.

The C5 VHF high band channels 7 thru 13 antenna comes with a combiner to connect a UHF channels 14 thru 51 antenna such as and not limited to the DB8e antenna.

Do not use the combiner.

Connect the C5 VHF antenna to the VHF connection of the , RCA preamp.

Set the, RCA preamp for Seperate antenna operation.

For 1 Tv connected use No splitter.

As Always , trees and tree leaves , plants and plant leaves , have a Negative Effect on Broadcast Tv Reception in the directions of reception and so do buildings and other obstructions including your own roof and building.

Some and not all Negative Effects are.

Absorbing and Blocking Reception.

Multi-Path Reflecting Tv Signals Bouncing All Around.

The Best Pratice is to install a antenna at a location that has the least amount to no amount of obstructions in the directions of reception including your own roof and building.
