That is something that I think has not been talked about enough. Only in seriously congested signal regions that you will see VHF DTV signals.

Ask them if you can order this for them. This is the #1 Antenna for DTV UHF reception and I have seen it pull GREAT signal quality.

As far as I knew the regular VHF stations weren't going to be changing their operating frequencies but I suppose anything is possible.

Thanks for the antenna tip. I happen to have 4 of them sitting in my storage room atm. I was planning to climb up on their roof and install one come springtime. Another reason I'm happy for the delay seeing as they live in upstate Maine.
Try a good UHF antenna first. Just set it up and point it at the nearest group of antennas you ought to get a bunch of channels.

In Soviet Russia you do not delay DTV... DTV delays YOU!
