Re: Anyone able to pick up WBBM-2.1 now?

Signal strength on new 7-1 and 2-1 both are higher on new channels than they were on older channels here (Skokie)

Checked on 2 different version receivers... V2 and V4 (I think converters are V4 tuners).... Both agree.

On a DTVPal converter box 2-1 went from high 80's on CH3 -- to low 90's on CH12.
7-1 went from high 80's on CH52 to high 90's on CH7.

I noticed that too on my T.V in the bedroom on ground level but the T.V down in the basement which had no problems picking up 2.1 can no longer get it after the transition. Its strange that it seems to be a stronger signal according to the strength meter on the aforementioned T.V

Chicago, IL		 After moving one of the "rabbit ears" a little I'm now able to pick up channel 2 on both T.V's. We'll see how the signal strength will be after the supposive 7:15pm change of something in the transmitter.
