Thanks for all of the answers.

I'm not sure what a 'fringe area' is; I don't think I live in one. I do think that's the right antenna, though another company (Radio Shack) made it.

I lucked on the solution. I hadn't checked into the 'setup' button. I did so, pulling up the box's menu, and fiddled with the buttons ('rh out' vs. channel 3, and so on) and rescanned the channels with each new combination until I hit one that worked.

Now I have like eight+ channels for free. Great deal for a one-time fee of $10!
