A good tuner should be capable of rejecting adjacent channel interference that is up to 33 dB stronger than the weaker desired signal. WNJT is 33.1 dB stronger than WNYT; close call. What helps is that WNJT is in a different direction, so if your antenna is aimed at WNYT, that should make WNJT weaker.

RECEIVER PERFORMANCE GUIDELINES

5.4.2 Adjacent Channel Rejection

The receiver should meet or exceed the thresholds given in Table 5.2 for rejection of first adjacent-channel interference at the desired signal levels shown above the columns therein.



WNJT will be moving to channel 23 on a sharing basis after "repack":
