   I used to be able to get a whole lot of stations OTA until they all went   
   digital.  Now I also get none OTA.   
      
   I half-wonder if they didn't force this conversion not only to be able to   
   sell licenses to part of the band to non-TV services, but also to push   
   people to pay services like cable and sattelite.   
      
   Of course, those last two are by now being replaced with streaming, but   
   that was not really a thing back when this started.
