      RW> RW>> You're using a VHF antenna to receive UHF digital stations 8 & 10?       RW> RW>> That's odd.              RW> TW> NO as I stated I am using a High Band VHF TV antanna. Low Band covers       RW> TW> channel 2 thru 6 and High covers Channel 7 thru 13              RW>No wonder you're not getting all of the HD channels. You need a UHF       RW>antenna for those. Channel 8 and 10 are still on VHF, but the rest of       RW>the stations in SD are on UHF frequencies. i.e. Channel 6 (calls       RW>itself 6.1 now) is now broadcasting on UHF channel 23, etc..              you are not paying any attnetion to what I am saying. As you Know the       UHF stations are in a totally different direction then the VHF channels       Because of this I CHoOSE to use a VHF Hi Anttenna pointed toward the Ch       8 & 10 transmitter tower location.       For the UHF antenna, as STATED above, I tried two different gigh gain       UHF ONLY antennas and the signals were still was to weak to be       Watchable!!!!!!!!       ---        þ SLMR 2.1a þ 0         * Origin: Fidonet Since 1991 bbs.docsnetservices.com (1:123/140)    |
