I receive all the channels you are trying to tune. I think you could receive WMTW in Portland, too. That is an ABC affiliate that carries a Heroes and Icons sub.
That is great! Way better than I expected. Hopefully I can do as well.

You will be able to receive WMUR and WENH on just about any VHF antenna pointed in the general direction of either. (I can get WMUR and WENH or WENH and WMTW but not all three without moving my VHF antenna.)
My old VHF was in the attic when I bought the house. It is a little beat up (some elements bent or broken). Thought I would try it and see what I get. WMUR is pretty strong on my report.

If that doesn't work I will add a VHF antenna to the outside mast.

Looked like the Portland stations were to far off from WMUR to even attempt. Might try it after I have everything settled down.

Need to keep the wife happy!
