    How is "The Tube"?

    Neat mix of videos, part of me wishes they had some "blocks" setup, 80's at 8:00, 90's at 9:00, but other times I enjoy the shuffle. WUAB here in Cleveland gives it the shaft on bandwidth though. Some newer videos look decent, but if there is flashing lights/colors, or the older videos, it...

    OTA Ant input please.

    What about getting stacking two antennas on the same mast? If it's unamplified, it should be an (almost) simple matter of getting a combiner mounted on the mast. Then make sure your cable runs are identical to each antenna. The antennas will need a fair amount of difference between the...

You'd only need an UHF antenna for your location, you don't have one of the "wacky" VHF HDTV stations like Cleveland...

    Exactly how big is a "large directional" antenna?

    What's your zip code? Could you be in a valley, and need a higher antenna? try "faking" it by telling it that you have a two story house, and have no trees around you. You might need a mast and wires to get the correct height. Also, if you are only 10 miles away, try a silver sensor. Get it...

    Distant Locals OTA

    Good Luck! I can sometimes get Buffalo, NY from where I am in Ohio (209 miles!) I regularly get Detroit without that much trouble (77 miles). However, I can't get CBS from Toledo or Cleveland to save my life (35-50 miles). This is with a CEA Blue rated antenna, with a RatShack booster...
