But I live at the edge of my market, 175 miles from the main transmitter. I am served by low power 'translators', with no digital signal and no hi-def. What's my solution? |

said by FBGuy:GET RABBIT EARS! That works if the channel in question is an OTA one (and you are within transmit range). In the recent CV vs. HGTV and Food Network dispute, the networks in question are cable only not OTA so there was no way to get them via an antenna. |

you can watch sports online. it may not be a legal broadcast but you can get about any game you want online. ustream, justin.tv, etc has about any game. or you can actually go to the game.

Most homes don't come with antennas on the chimney anymore. Anyways people with cable don't have DTV adaptors. Its not moving a cable like it was 10 or 20 years ago to go from antenna to cable. |

Not sure if you know or not but there is a movement in place that want to do away with (OTA) over-the-air tv aka they want to make it so your forced to get a service provider. So don't really rely on rabbit ears because soon if some people have their way, they could end up being a thing of the past

that would be just evil. and probably the death of tv if metered billing comes into play. I'm not sure about most people, but I would never pay the crazy inflated prices that cable or Satellite operators charge for their service. Not if I still had to watch ads that is.
