Good Morning!
This may be a stupid question but...........
Are there any TV signals thru the air on STX.........C'Sted area??
I am considering one of those little portable LCD TV's that has an antenna (and battery back-up!!).
Thanks for any info!

With a roof top antenna you can pick up a handful channels. Even some from Puerto Rico. Rabbit ears will have very limited success.

We have something that looks simmilar to AntennaCraft 5MS921 Omni-State Omni-Directional HDTV/VHF/UHF TV Antenna

I was really surprised the number of "local" channels and great, clear picture that we get on our HD TV on Water Island. We're able to get all the PBS channels and the major networks (ABC, CBS, NBC, etc.). We installed this antenna indoors/in our attic. Some of the major networks are in spanish in the early afternoon. But, they broadcast in english news programs out of New York and the prime time television programs are in english as well in the late afternoon - night.

I thought that TV signals came thru the luminiferous ether. You must mean OTA.
