Reception is very location specific. The referenced threads lead to two tools to estimate reception at your specific area:

and

The prediction for Glendale is two moderate strength Maine signals given a roof mount antenna: VHF high station 8-1 and UHF station 6-1.

From the west side of Welch we get Vermont ch 31 and 41 with a roof mount high gain UHF antenna. Even with a high gain VHF High antenna, we can't get ch 9. And only marginal reception of Maine 8-1 from the reflection off of Mt. Major. Nothing looking east, too many trees.
