    That's pretty bad. All stations should be broadcasting digital already, so you should definitely be receiving more than 2 channels. There are so many different variables when it comes to reception, that it's almost impossible to try and help without more information about your antenna setup and the distance from the TV broadcast towers from your house.

    I only get 3 if I'm lucky. You might have a line of sight problem.

    I get none at all. I am preparing to hoist my antenna up into a redwood tree as a last resort.
