KMGH Channel 7 in Denver (ABC) Upgrading Signal

[jbrychka]

For those poor saps like me who can't get ABC HD OTA in Denver, we might be in luck for the Super Bowl! I called them today and they informed me that they are setting up a new antenna downtown that should have the same power as the NBC and CBS stations. This is suppose to happen by January 23rd. So if you are getting the other local HD channels, you should be able to get ABC shortly.

:) This will be great!! I will not hold my breathe though. I have asked them for several months with no response. I hope it is true.

This should take them from 3kW ERP to 12 kW ERP (though some reports it may only be 6kW)

WB and Fox are well over 200kW ERP.

That's it! How much power is NBC and CBS?

It is finally on the air. Great signal.

KMGH was broadcasting today. The strength meter was over 90. :D

I am getting a 92 signal strength! :)

Around 12kW too.

16 - KUSA - 10.9
17 - KMGH previously 1.9
18 - KRMA - 13.8
19 - KTVD - 6.5
31 - KDVR - 223
34 - KWGN - 450
35 - KCNC - 11.0

That's strange that KWGN signal is so strong when it is one of my weaker stations. It comes in at 75 and KDVR comes in at 90.
