Put in your zip code to start and then move the red marker to your location. You see will that reception is highly location variable. The results assume a roof mount antenna and even then Ch 9 is very hard to get in this area unless your location is ideal. Reception of Ch 9 in this area with a mid size in room antenna is highly unlikely.

From the west side of Welch we can get Maine Ch 8 with a high gain roof mount VHF High band antenna aimed toward Mt Major, a signal reflected off the mountain.

We also get VT channels 31 and 41 with a high gain roof mount UHF antenna aimed to the west. There is a pre amp on the antenna mast that combines the VHF and UHF antennas.

We are not able to receive Ch 9 from that location even with the high gain VHF high band antenna.
