No it's not possible at your location.

1) WEUX is on a short (< 500' tower).

2) WEUX utilizes a highly directional transmitting antenna that limits westward power to less than 5% of its million watt ERP.

3) WEUX's ch 49 signal is bracketed by both a channel 48 and a channel 50 LD whose signals are forcast to be some 55 dB stronger, effectively wiping out the any channel 49 signal that might make it.

Items 1 & 2 probably limit WEUX's signal to a distance of 40 miles or so to the west of their tower with the best of antenna systems and the best of conditions.

If the wife wants to see the Packers via an antenna, it will mean a road trip some 30-50 miles to your east. If you've ever wanted an RV or a travel trailer and she's said "No", here's your excuse: "Honey, it's for you and your beloved Packers!"
