KTVO channel 3 is broadcasting in HD. It is on channel 33-1. They are also broadcasting a music channel 0n channel 33-2. As previously stated, they are only broadcasting at 87kW and I live around 35-40 miles from the tower. At times it is difficult for me to pick up their signal.

My zip code is 52501. If you type this into their website it will tell you that I am eligible to receive FOX, NBC, and CBS. I live 15 miles from a FOX tower but 85 miles from the NBC and CBS tower. It also says that I am not eligible for the standard channels. According to D I must first...

I finally got through to HD-eligibility last night. Their web site says that I am eligible for NBC and CBS, however they told me that in order for them to hook up the national HD feeds I need to have waivers to receive the standard feeds. I have been denied in the past from receiving these...

I called D last night to get the distant network HD feeds. The first lady I talked with was trying to give me all of them. She could not get it to work so she sent me to tech support. Since it was HD they then sent me to another department where I was on hold for nearly 30 minutes before I...

I switched antenna's. I went from my CM4228 (which was giving me problems on the closer channel) to a XG91. It had a few of the same problems but I was able to watch the Rose Bowl with very few drop outs.

I typed in my zip code in the Direct TV website and it says that I am eligible for NBC and CBS. Those are two of the three networks that I can currently receive OTA. ABC is the one I am having problems with. I think I am going to call Direct TV anyway and secure NBC and CBS while I can...

I have a rotator. I use it to try to find the best signal. However, it does not matter where I point the antenna, the signal bounces all over the place. I may try moving it to a different location on the roof. Maybe the highest peak is not the best place.

I had D submit the waiver request. How can you find which DMA's are eligible for HD national feeds?

It is a UHF station, there is a short water tower about 1 mile from my house. Not in the line of sight of where the tower is located.

I have a CM4228 antenna with a winegard preamp. Mounted as high on the house as I can get it. I receive fairly solid OTA signals from the Des Moines, IA stations that are located over 80 miles away, however my local ABC station from Kirksville, MO is not coming in. The signal bounces all over...

Is there anyway to receive the national HD feeds from Direct TV? I have been denied the waivers and have spent nearly $300 on OTA equipment with little to no luck. If anyone has any suggestions let me know.
