Default All DTV Channels are Gone!

Hi -
I'm hoping that someone on this forum will be able to answer my questions because I've called everywhere else!

I live in NYC and I use an indoor antenna/signal booster.
I bought a Digital TV several months ago and it worked great on both the analog and digital options for the channels. Some channels weren't ready yet but I did get most of them and the reception was perfect.

This weekend I put the TV on and there were no digital channels. All I got was the message "No Signal". The antenna was working because it did change the reception when I moved it.

I unplugged the TV to bring it back to "factory" status and I also unplugged the antenna to re-set it.

I did a scan and - nothing. All of the channels were there on analog but nothing on digital.

I called Samsung and they told me to do what I had already done and I called the local stations to see if it was something there but it wasn't.

My local CBS station did a test during the news this week when it switched to digital for 2 minutes and it let you know if your TV was ready for the change and I got the message that my TV wasn't. I switched to DTV and Air while the test was going on to be sure.

I need to know what I need to do to get the DTV channels back. If I'm unable to correct this I'll need to get cable and there is only one choice in my building and everyone says that it is awful so I'd love to be able to avoid that.

Thanks!
