MRX, with a double bowtie reflector that I bought a decade+ ago at a garage sale, I get the following, and their subchannels:

2, 4, 7, 9, 20, 31, 38, 50, 56, 62.

As of a couple weeks ago, I could still get analog 42 out of Sarnia, in my basement, with just a loop on the back of my Zenith sets.

As for the rest of the thread, I understand the technical reasons for not showing actual TV broadcasts. My observation was that on the one hand, Hollywood created things like Technicolor, Panavision, Cinemascope and even 3D/surround sound to battle against the popularity of television, making it seem tiny and monchrome. Yet in their own productions, the made TV appear even better than it was, with bright rectangular color a decade before it was reality.
