DXing tonight!
ADVERTS
Got some distant stations trying to come in tonight. WIVB & the WRGZ mux from Buffalo - over 200 miles away. Anyone else DXing out there?

WOW! 200 miles!? Impressive to say the least. The best I ever got was a little over 100 miles.

Just wait until you get your tax bill for having better than average reception to reimburse your local broadcasters for loss of revenue.

Who knows, with the high pressure in the Northeast, you may even do better the next couple of days.

A Radio Shack VU-190XR antenna (which I've had since 2001-2) with a Channel Master rotor and an AntennaCraft 10G202 pre-amp. It's probably 30' off the ground on the roof of my 2 story house. Just added the pre-amp last fall and ran new RG6 cable. It's made a big difference in the digital signals as well as the analog signals I still get from Canada. Originally Posted by No Static At All
