Don’t be misled… you don’t have to use a pay service to have “High Definition Television” (HDTV)

You do at my place. Here in Columbia, MD, midway between Baltimore and DC, reception of all kinds of RF broadcasts can be very poor.

I cannot receive a clear picture on regular TV much less HDTV. Many of the people I know around the area report the same. I don't even get a decent cell phone signal in my apartment, and I live on the top floor of the building.

It’s weird here.

At our old apartment in Laurel (Howard County side) I could get all but one Baltimore and all but two Washington stations with a simple set of rabbit ears.

At the townhouse in Columbia, only 5 miles away, I get maybe 2 B-more and 1 DC station on the same set of rabbit ears.
