dolariThere are two PBS stations in Seattle. KCTS and KBTC. KCTS is boring. Lots of financial shows. Lots of dry boring documentaries on dry boring topics. Then there's KBTC. They show Dr. Who. Red Green. Really freaking cool documentaries...
...and I couldn't get KBTC for anything after the digital switch. I moved my antenna everywhere, up down, left right all around the outside of my apartment biulding. Nothing.
Finally I just gave up - I'd never get KBTC. Boogers. So I started reeling my antenna in...and it fell over.
And KBTC came in perfectly. Not a single bad packet, frame, signal. It comes in stronger than closer signals. But only if the antenna is laid down at a specific angle, and pointing a specific direction.
DTV is wierd.
But I can see Doctor Who now. :D "Black Orchid, Part Two."
