New HD Antena for Joe

Put up a new HD antenna today for Joe & Carol in Buzzards Bay - using a Channel Master antenna and hi-gain (pro quality) preamplifier and all came out well except ch 7. Well the experience was a learning one!

Back at the office learned that Ch7 had particular problems in the digital switchover. They've actually left the airwaves as ch 7 and they are now 42. Who'd have thunk that would happen. And wouldn't it be nice if their website explained this. Oh well, maybe it was felt as an embarrassment to them that they failed the switchover test :-(

Well they're happy & I had a learning xperience.

FYI & FWIW - good antenna info at the following sites

www.antennaweb.org & www.tvfool.com
