Re: Not a concern yet

I got the RCA HD converter $47.95 + taxes.
I've been able to get 24 HD channels with a Phillips set of amplified rabbit ears

I've used up my 2 coupons already
I may just cut my DirecTv altogether.

Ooh you're in a lucky "hot" spot of Valencia. I can't get one channel!

Beware before you cancel DirecTV - ABC's signal is hit and miss.

Yeah - I don't have ABC or FOX
I do get a lot though... I just put the rabbit ears at a 'good' spot on my roof, and hit 26 OTA
Also to note: antenna direction is VERY specific (ie. 99 degrees here) - make note of the direction from antennaweb.org, also, use a GOOD antenna - do not try the RCA indoor/outdoor - POS.
A slight turn in position will lose many channels.

Interestingly enough, I get analog ABC very good, buy no ABC HD.
