How easy is the access to the pole that held the dish antenna?
How close is the old dish antenna to the porch?

It sounds like it would be pretty easy to take the antenna out there (assuming you could aim it towards NYC) and try it to each TV with a single length of new coax before pulling any cables. It's the easiest way to test it. The C2-V-CJM does not have much gain on VHF, so outside should be better.

For WABC-7 and WPIX-11 an alternative is to pick up a separate, more powerful VHF antenna and connect it to where the VHF connection for the C2-V-CJM now connects. Something like an Antennacraft V5713 or V10713. WLIW probaby won't be possible in the attic (esp since it's in a different direction).
