We have dish TV for most entertainment viewing, an outdoor antenna for local news / weather.

We have a perfect picture on the 3 DTV PBS channels we get right now. Our old VHF antenna which has the front half broken off years ago was still able to get the "local" channels which are all in the 100 mile range ;-) Fuzzy but viewable on analog. Those first digital PBS channels are from a town 110 miles away,with our broken antenna which is set for another town / stations which has it set "sideways" turned 90 degrees to the digital PBS stations. In spite of the broken old antenna aimed totally wrong for the digital stations 100 miles away, we still get a perfect picture. The only thing that probibly makes it work is the Radio Shack signal booster installed at the TV. This is an old unit (15 years ? ) the better chrome case model they did / do sell.
Digital TV is going to be a great thing for rural america, it will give us a channel selection and picture quality never possible with the old analog system.
