I have had the exact same problem. After doing some research, I learned that previous to the DTV transition, several television stations broadcasted in the VHF band. A VHF signal had more of an ability to travel around trees and mountains and, therefore, was received easily by television antennas. However, after the DTV transition, many stations moved to the UHF band which is "terrain limited," meaning it can't go around trees, mountains, etc. So, if you live near a large hill or have lots of trees nearby, you may lose a signal. Unfortunately, there is not much you can do about this. If you originally used "bunny ears" or another type of indoor antenna, you can improve your reception with a rooftop antenna. If you already have one and still don't get all the stations you used to (like me), then there isn't anything you can do except maybe making your antenna taller. I suggest you contact a professional that works with antennas and ask him what he may be able to do. I wish you the best of luck! Sincerely, Der Strom
