I am relatively new @ this DTV stuff, but being an electronics tech, I figured it wouldn't be too difficult. Here is my problem: I can receive WRBL (3) & WRBL weather (3.1) crystal clear. However, I'm not able to receive any other DTV channels. My antenna is the RCA ANT806. It is a multi-directional antenna, and brings in the analog broadcasts very well. It is mounted indoors, and it seems to work fine despite my being approx 22 miles away from Columbus (east of Buena Vista to be exact). The specifications say that the VHF range is 54-250 MHz (18 dB) & the UHF range is 470-806 MHz (15 dB). According to my television owner's manual, I have all of the menus set up correctly, and I have performed the "auto DTV channel search" numerous times. I even tried another antenna, thinking that maybe I had a lemon, but I get the same result with the substituted antenna. I hope someone can help me out here.

OK. So with a little persistance, I figured out my problem. A longer piece of RG 59 Coax allowed me to relocate my antenna just enough to dial in the rest of the channels. Guess I should have tried that earlier.
