John - You are correct regarding the feed and we were getting an ATSC
suntan. Recall that the battle was multipath, not signal strength. We tuned
KLAS - CBS who was also a great help the following year in the datacast
demos - boy that one went no-where. I think that it was channel 7 / VHF.
Never did see a OTA demo work from WOW-TV but hope their latest model and
technology works and can make an impact.
Regards,
Dewey

Dewey,
VHF from 17 miles away?!? No wonder the antenna worked inside the personal
effects safe. A Silver Sensor or Radio Shack double bow tie antenna isn't
even designed to work with VHF, so why even bother with it at all? VHF is
perfect for the paper clip antenna.
I see four VHF DTV channels assigned to Las Vegas; 2, 7, 11, and 12. Which
one did your demo use? I wonder how your demo with the personal effects
safe would have worked on UHF, where the vast majority of DTV assignments
are.
Cheers,
John Shutt
