There should have been a requirement that if you were on VHF, the digital signal should have gone right back to where you were on VHF at the transition. Likewise on UHF. The flip-flopping of real channels is what is driving everyone crazy!
I have to add this exception. There are technical issues with digital lo-VHF channels so they should just move to hi-VHF or UHF only if there is no more room around your DMA.
Is this a crazy thought?
IMO.. The cable companies paid the stations off to drive everyone crazy so they would subscribe to them.
Nowhere did any channel say to you that all you might need to do is a get different antenna after June 12th along with the new box. All they said to you is that you would need a digital tuner. That's all. You bought the box and had your current antenna in place but the channel switched bands just to throw you off the track. Now you have been caught in that trap set by both the cable and satellite networks. Hook, line and sinker to get anything.
The
FCC along with all of the networks and local channels are all in cahoots on this.
Less advertising throughout
