[opendtv] Re: DTV TUNER

Thanks John,

It will be rabbit ears in an apartment in Sterling, VA for right now -- but 
then a house in a few months where I'm recommending to my brother a 50 to 
60 foot mast with rotor and antenna atop. That should be good for the 
DC/Baltimore area, right?

Any antenna suggestions for the house? I guess the days of the large 
VHF/UHF antennas I used to put on seventy foot masts and in 90 foot pine 
trees are gone, right? No reason to pull in analog VHF with DTV, right? 
What would one go with - a full spectrum UHF antenna?

Please forgive my ignorance. I'm unable to read all the list postings as I 
used to.

Lastly, can you or anyone steer me in a direction where I might I which 
DC/Baltimore area stations are broadcasting DTV at full power at this time?

Thanks,
Jay
