   I used this site:   
      
   https://www.tvfool.com/?option=com_wrapper&Itemid=29   
      
   It was pretty accurate for what's available in my area.  It also lets you know   
   the signal strength based on how high your antenna is.  That's how we knew we   
   needed ours to be 30ft in the air to reliably get the stations from Buffalo.   
      
   When I typed my Dad's address into that site (Muskoka), he can get one station   
   reliably (CTV), and might be able to get Global & CHCH if we were able to get   
   the antenna high enough.  A far cry from the ~30 stations we can get down here.
