So I decided to cut off cable and go OTA, but I'm having problems picking up NBC and CBS (11 and 13 respectively).
Living in an apartment limits my capability to get an outdoor antenna, but according to TV Fool, I'm well above the 35 dB threshold to pull in the channels I want (less than 20 miles from tower).
According to TV Fool: ABC, NBC, CBS, Fox, CW all come in from ~98 deg from my location. In theory, I should be able to point my antenna in that direction and pick up those channels. I get them all but NBC and CBS.
More research has shown that ABC is VHF-low, NBC & CBS are VHF-High, and Fox / CW are UHF.
I've attempted the following three antennae, which claim to be VHF / UHF:
Moho Leaf 50
RCA CANT1650F
GE Flat Panel Amplified Antenna (useless piece of junk this one was)
Anyone in Carroll actually pick up 11 & 13? If so what antenna are you using?
