I catch Maude and Sanford and Son reruns every now and again on Antenna TV. If it just aired some Welcome Back, Kotter episodes, I'd be set, wink

I love it. Good Times, Three's Company, All In The Family, Maude, and Sanford and Son. They need to put The Ropers back on though. Between Antenna TV and ME TV, that's all I watch except for an occassional old Soul Train episode on Bounce and the local news.

Antenna TV is a network you can get over-the-air as a digital subchannel. If Antenna TV is in your market, you should be able to pick it up on any HD compatible TV Some places carry the channel on cable too.

After the digital conversion, you have to get a converter box to pick up channels. If I didn't have one, I couldn't pick up any channels at all.

They were good when they first came on the air a few months ago but now they're getting as shitty as BET.

I have one, but now it's all or nothing.

If you get the channel it's perfectly clear. But if you don't get it well enough it is not fuzzy like it used to be, there is nothing at all.

Oh yeah, then there's definitely something about the location of your building or what it's made of that is interfering with the reception. I was against the digitial takeover from day one because of not only flaws like that, but also for having to go out and buy a box for every TV in the house.

I'm in San Jose, by the airport, and my reception is HORRIBLE. Every time an airplane comes by the signal dies out, plus i live next to a lot of tall trees and a VTA (train)route so im ******. I would move the antenna and the Dtv box to different locations in the apartment and i still couldn't get a decent signal so i finally said "forget it !" and got basic cable.

Living by a lot of tall buildings,tall trees or Airplane traffic will hinder your signal. Also some converter boxes are just cheep garbage and barely work. There is a website called Antennaweb that will tell you what kind of antenna you'll need, and at what direction you should place it.

Here's the website:
