| Comments: | | I recently installed a "set top box" for OTA broadcasts hoping to receive HDTV programs.(SamsungTS360)
The guide shows; 4-1 WCMHDT, 6-1 WSYXDT, and 10-1 WBNSDT
Only one of these can be viewed, that is 6-1 WSYXDT. (Signal strength = 50%- 70%)
The others display a "searching for signal" message, but never finds one. (signal strength = 0%)
Is there a reason for this performance?
I smell a rat, I see that 4-1 WCMHDT and 10-1 WBNSDT are viewed on the Newark local Adelphia cable, while 6-1 WSYXDT is not. Can it be that Adelphia is paying for exclusivity.
Any inside information on this ???

| Comments: | | I wish I would have bought this receiver a long time ago. I didn't know what I was missing on my Hitachi 57SWX20B. The supplied cables needed an upgrade as well. Tried 2 different outdoor antennas (Channel Master 4228 and RS round type) but the indoor works the best so far. Like to know if anyone else in Columbus, Ohio has had luck with any other types of indoor antennas?

| Comments: | | Tried this liitle antenna inside the house to see
if it could pick up any HDTV signal. WBNS-DT and WCMH-DT come in very clearly. Worth the $25 for the effort (virtually none). No hint of WSYX-DT, but that isn't unexpected, from what I hear.
Tuner is the Samsung SIRT160.
