Right now I'm picking up 12 which is as good as it ever gets. Other times it will just be 5 or 6. I don't watch a lot of shows regularly so it's ok for my needs. If your TV is important to you, you probably won't like it.

This is exactly what happened to us. Took the antennae back & went w/Comcast. No regrets.

If you can get your spouse to stand on a chair with one leg stuck out with a pan on her head and one hand wrapped in aluminum foil while holding the antenna at a 57 degree angle, you may get a channel or two.

You can still get television reception with an antenna?

Watch for a new company called Aereo. Once they come to Orlando, you will be able to get local TV over the internet for about $12 per month.
Basically, you rent your own micro antenna in the Orlando Viewing Area, and then access that antenna over the internet. |

The web site shows availability in Miami. Could we use the Miami service in TV?

We have one and the reception is fantastic. Just as clear as with cable. My husband and a friend put it up. We get NBC, CBS, ABC, PBS, RTV, MeTV, FOX, a channel that shows movies, probably about 50+ in all. Out of the total channels, we probably watch about 25-30, as a few are in Spanish. I really haven't even missed cable, and I sure don't miss the bill!!
