Here are a few items of interest pertaining to local digital stations: KTFK-TV has advised the FCC that they have ended their analog operation on channel 64...
... That's interesting. What will their virtual channel be? 2.x? If so, how will our receivers differentiate the two? They're licensed for 400 kW from Sutro on...
Re KTVU, any guesses as to their antenna pattern? And how the ERP will compare to the other 4 stations in that area? (I can get the 4 here in Monterey)....
... As I said before, KCSM is my most reliable received station 365/24 here in Sunnyvale. I do wonder if just one channel difference is any predictor for KTVU,...
I got all Sutro stations including the 250kw channel 43 rock solid in Pleasanton. I am on a hill and probably have line of sight from sutro. However, I barely...
Hi, I am planning an antenna upgrade, and wanted to share my thoughts, and solicit any opinions from the group. Goal: Best possible reception of Sutro digital...
All of the stations from Sutro Tower and Mt. San Bruno are in the green area on the TVFool list, so what you have for an antenna now might be all you need....

Hi Chris..  My experience with roof-top antennas goes back to 1963 when i lived in Milpitas. I have used log-periodic antennas with a Channel Master...
Thanks to those who have already replied. I have a correction to my original post, under Option I, I meant to indicate Winegard HD-1080 for the UHF & VHF-hi...
I would look for an antenna that is designed to do High-VHF and UHF only. The high VHF section will work just fine for FM. Here's an example (I'm sure there...
Hi Don, Thanks for the tip on the UP-7 - I haven't seen that antenna before. Since moving from SF, I consider myself very lucky to still to be within range of...
I got notice today of four new digital stations... two with licenses already, which means they should be on the air, and two new applications. Here's the run...
I change the audio to secondary audio and still no audio for KTSF 26. The audio has been set to secondary audio (SAP). When it is set to SAP, KTVU 2 has a...
At this time, the satellite providers are all receiving the digital stations, and SAP doesn't really exist like it did with analog. On my DirecTV box, I'm...
... Really? An antenna for 174-216 MHz is going to be equivalent to a random wire for 88-108 MHz. Low VHF antennas tend to work as designed for FM, since...
Hi, I was only able to get KDFC (102.1) in HD after I put the FM splitter first in the cable from my VHF antenna. Sunnyvale, VHF antenna in Attic pointed at...
For those interested in seeing the FCC's proposed coverage for each digital station check out this link: http://www.fcc.gov/dtv/markets/ You'll find a set of...
Hi, Boy there is a lot of ORANGE on several of the stations On Sutro. Major stations KPIX, KRON and KTVU after September 09. SHF ... From: Larry Kenney To:...
Two stations will be switching antennas with each other when the digital transition is completed early Saturday morning. The combiners for the temporary...
... I'm going to readjust the cron job that I run on my machine in the living room to poll the channels and will be able to post a complete report on the...
... I didn't say it was perfect antenna for the FM band. But it will work just fine for most people in most situations. If there's a signal there at all, the...
... Remember to include a rescan. Most receivers will require it to get the stations that change channels. ... I'm sure they'll be on there testing so that...
They anounced they will be switching Friday around noon. They will be turning off digital 10 and analog 8, and going digital on 8. I don't know how long the...
