Talk:WMUR-TV

message: The opening paragraph states: "It is the only network television station to exclusively cover the state of New Hampshire, as other networks are provided by out of state channels."  I don't know what this is supposed to mean.  Does "exclusively cover" mean that it covers only the state of New Hampshire, or that it is the only station that ever has exclusive coverage within New Hampshire?  Does "other networks" mean networks other than ABC, and if so, what bearing does this have on exclusively covering New Hampshire? Better wording would help, or perhaps the deletion of this sentence if no one can fix it. GMcGath 14:06, 28 May 2006 (UTC)

message: Should we remove the NH TV Affliates in the article? I think there are some of those information already in the respected articles. Steven312 00:31, 2 February 2007 (UTC)
thread_title:  NH TV Affiliates? 

message: The statement, "This distinguishes WMUR as being the only commercial television station in the country to completely cover an entire state," is clearly wrong.  The Providence, RI commercial stations completely cover Rhode Island (by virtue of the state's small size).  I am removing the statement from the article. Jimtrue 21:27, 22 September 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: The FCC site lookup shows the station as 6500 watts post-transition. Either this is a bad joke, or WMUR won't be serving "the entire state" for long. --99.245.244.176 (talk) 02:36, 27 May 2008 (UTC)

You may add  after the link to keep me from modifying it, if I keep adding bad data, but formatting bugs should be reported instead. Alternatively, you can add  to keep me off the page altogether, but should be used as a last resort. I made the following changes:

message: Storer planned to purchase WMUR-TV in early 1957, but it came under fire when it announced plans to move its transmitter to just outside Haverhill, Massachusetts – only 20 miles north of Boston, with it soon becoming apparent that Storer intended to move all of channel 9's operations across the border to Massachusetts and reorient it as the Boston market's third VHF station but outcry from New Hampshire viewers led regulators to reject Storer's request to build a new tower near Haverhill, and Storer subsequently backed out of the deal. Had Storer's request been approved, it would have possibly made channel 9 a CBS affiliate due to its very good relations with that network (and given Boston VHF channels 2, 4, 5, 7, and 9), and it also would have potentially resulted in WNAC-TV (channel 7, the predecessor to the current WHDH) becoming a full-time ABC affiliate, and the original WHDH-TV (channel 5, now occupied by WCVB-TV) signing on as an independent station. 2601:587:100:6D8:79A0:4461:1C6F:1529 (talk) 01:59, 15 January 2019 (UTC)
