Unfortunately this is the one set I watch every morning before work for traffic info, guess I won't be doing that no more. All of the other sets are on satellite and/or cable service so they are ok. Over the Air Digital transmissions SUCK. Everything interferes with the signals and the signal strength is less than half that of analog. Even with the digital stations I get, the picture comes and goes.
Only good thing was, that the local station continued to broadcast analog Friday nite so people could watch our local hockey team (Hershey Bears) win the Calder Cup and then watch the Penquins beat the Redwings in the Stanley Cup. Nice way to finish out the analog era.
