I got on ebay as soon as I knew what VHF freqs were re-allocated to the area. The antennas are in the attic of garage with a metal roof. This is perfect for radiating toward the house.

Fortunately, I am somewhat rural. Just staying off of channels 2-6-8-10 and 13 would make for a good neighbor, though 8 and 10 are our only "local" stations. I use 3-7-11 and 12. These are fed direct A-V composite from a Funai (Magnavox or Philco) DT converter. These are fairly trouble free ones that stay on 24/7, set to channels appropriate to flip through on an old set.

The MAVM aand BAVM series modulators output a great signal for these older analog tuners, far better than RF3 or 4 connection to a STB or VCR.
