Stupid me, I saw Peachtree Apartments fire - Norwich, CT - Norwich Bulletin and thought it was his current residence. Must read before posting next time.

True, it’s not like I am posting my SSN, Credit card or bank account number. There is no real value here that a thief would want.

Besides, even if you got my actual address, the common doors to where I live are locked. You would also not know which Apt i live in, there are 125 of them.

Also, when mentioning Antenna height, is that the distance off the ground? Or the distance from Sea Level?

A 30 ft pole that is at 100 ft Altitude would be 130 ft? Or still just 30ft?

Enter it as height above ground level, for that example, 30 ft.

Well i went to my Aunts House today, and here are my results from my "experiment"

Her Cordinates are

Lat 41.491297
Lon -72.101131

She lives about 3/4s the way up her street, which climbs a fairly steep hill. I think that could explain why i was able to pick at least a few channels.

I was able to pick up these channels

WHPX 26 (ION)
WTIC 61 (Fox)
WXPQ 69 (ION)

Each of thes channels had "sub-channels" (not sure their name), such as 26.1, 26.2, etc. I belive they each had 4 each.

Most of the channels above came in clear, and a few were very pixelated, mainly on WXPQ (69)

So i am not convinced that my location just does not pick up these new digtial signals. I guess i am just going to have to stick with Crappy Comcast.
