<font size="+2">Hi, Rhubarbpieguy: Nice to know I'm not alone.
I'm located in Eden Valley. My OTA antenna is a DIY 8-bay with
9 1/2" whiskers, along with pre-amp setup. Rescan has not
corrected the issue. Currently getting ABC out of Chicago where
I expected CBS out of Minneapolis (72 miles). What antenna are
you using?<br>

P.S. I am a big rhubarb pie fan as well. :)<br>

I live in Sioux Falls, SD and use a DIY Gray-Hoverman DB4 design
mounted in a corner window. I commonly receive CBS (KMEG) and NBC
(KTIV) from Sioux City. However, over the weekend I lost Sioux City
NBC but received ABC (KCAU). However, I also received NBC (WOW)
from Omaha. That's quite far for OTA.<br>
<br>
Your Chicago reception surpasses mine from Omaha, which is
surprising. If you're still receiving ABC from Chicago I would bet
that will disappear soon.<br>

In the early 90's I subscribed to subscription television to avoid
ghosting and because NBC dropped baseball. But I gladly dropped
cable/satellite when DTV arrived as there's no longer ghosting. I
do miss ESPN baseball, but I subscribe to MLB audio and receive
every game for $20/year. I prefer listening over watching games
anyway.<br>
<br>
Unfortunately, rhubarb pie is a rarity in Sioux Falls. When I lived
in Minneapolis it could be found. You can find strawberry/rhubarb
pie, but diluting a perfectly good rhubarb pie with strawberry
leaves me cold.<br>
