Re: [OTA] OTA DTV conversion problems Thanks for the Ch 44 info. Would rather 44 in HD than the subchannels, which I never watch.
And for the WENH thing - figured it was something like that.
As for WMUR, I think I read somewhere on one of these forums that since WMUR is owned by WCVB, they don't care if WMUR is carried in the Boston market at all. I suspect that, if they're ever sold, the new owners will change that. |

Really when the heck did that happen????
Used to be WMUR was stuck between a rock and a hard place. WMTW (8) from MT Washingtom covering everything north (at high power and elivation, yet weirdly ADJACENT channel WMUR 9 the FCC normally avoiids so must have been very low power though not the UHF LPTV/translator level thing)) and WCVB owning Boston.... all 3 ABC (at least 20 years ago)... did they buy it just buy it to just get it off the air? Or is there some mysetious black hole in So NH? 
Butr now that I think about it Boston has always been a bizare frequncy market. You hvae WBZ on 4 and WCVB on 5.... again in a common market adjacent channels are avoided with the exception of channel 6 and 7 where you have a huge space of aircraft and other services actually between 6 and 7 Agaqin plus same network just north MUR and MTW on 9 and 8
The VHF big gap is between 6 and 7 but now that I think about it there is a 4 (also NBC) and 5 in NYC as well so maybe there is a small gap there vs adjacent ...... but as far as I know there isn't between 8 and 9.... so WMUR has always been in a tough place.
