also i had received this response from wciu back in march....
We are aware and are actively working to resolve this issue. This affects certain Samsung, Magnavox and LG/Zenith television sets and converter boxes.
also they are suppose to be spending money to "upgrade" or " tweek" there antenna this summer for high rises... which tells me that they have some kind of problem that they do not wan to admit to...
please let me know if there is anything else i can do....
thanks
mookie
i do not think that they fixed this problem... we also have dtv at my office with a brand new digital tv that has the digital tuner inside and an amplified antenna and we have the same problem....

From what you've described, your antenna is just an UHF bunny ears. If it had the loop like the one in Piggie's picture, that would make it a UHF/VHF.
Sounds like WCIU is still working the bugs out for now, but you're probably going to need a better antenna with both UHF/VHF elements on it. A lot of people like the TERK HDTVi, and I've seen a lot of blog posts on news websites recommending it too, but I don't own it. We always like to suggest buying antennas from a store with a good return policy just in case they don't work.
