Re: HDTV over the air in Chicago

I am like 3 miles from the Sears Tower. DO you think it is worth the OTA signal to buy a $400-$500 reciever and an Antenna?

Does DirecTV have plans for local HD channels?

Re: HDTV over the air in Chicago

I doubt DTV will do HDTV for locals anytime soon.

I'm a TV Luddite, and with the dearth of programming out there in true HDTV I just can't pull the trigger myself. You are obviously more into it than I am. It might be useful to check out each network's programming schedule to find out how many are actually broadcast in HDTV and not just "ATV".

At 3 miles you should get good reception even on a cheap set-top antenna.
