[QUOTE="Jason Fritz, post: 3468, member: 1"]Great information Static and welcome to the site! Many of the local stations here in AZ that were broadcasting analog signals on VHF frequencies, are now broadcasting under UHF frequencies with digital signals. Rabbit Ear (Dipole) antennas are great for VHF reception, but not so good for UHF digital frequencies. Also, rabbit Ear antennas manufactured with a loop are supposed to work well with VHF and UHF channels, but only do so if you are located within a close proximity of broadcast towers. You may want to purchase a good uhf/vhf antenna from a store with a good return policy and see if it offers any improvement. My best guess is the UHF frequencies you are having a problem receiving. Hope this helps. ;)[/QUOTE]
