[QUOTE=&quot;MrPogi, post: 128069, member: 5542&quot;]You may also have better luck with the other channels out of Watertown, WWTI 21 (ABC) and WPBS 41 (ABC). Try putting your UHF antenna on the same mast as the current VHF antenna and point in the same direction. Noise margins are similar for 7, 21, and 41, and the locations for the transmitters are close to channel 7's.Note that the Watertown Fox affiliate broadcasts from the same exact location <a href="http://www.rabbitears.info/locationmap.php?request=location&amp;location=Champion+%28NY%29">http://www.rabbitears.info/locationmap.php?request=location&amp;location=Champion+(NY)</a> - but it is the same as the 7.2 FOX subchannel.Interesting to note that WWNY 7 was so isolated in the 50's through the 70's that it was the ONLY US station that most people in that part of the state could receive. Until WWTI signed-on in 1987, WWNY&nbsp; was Watertown's only commercial station. As such, it was permitted to&nbsp; carry affiliations with all three networks.
