How I made an HDTV antenna so I could watch Jeopar...
Which city are you in? I'm in downtown Ottawa and with a store-bought HDTV antenna I get only 2 stations. Maybe I'll have to go buy a spool of wire!

Go to tvfool.com and put in your addresses. From what I can find they have Canada data in their DB too. The first step to understand how to get good reception is to learn where all the towers are located and what band they broadcast on.

Well that settles it. I'm buying a spool tonight. Thanks!

I had the same experience in Vanier (Ottawa East..). I actually brought back the antenna to the store because I thought it was broken.
