I could be wrong but I believe you can only pick up CBS-PBS and Fox.

Yes, expect CBS, Fox, MBPN, and CBC (Canada) only, but the good news is that the CBS and Fox towers are on mars hill mountain, so the signal should be good.

I think the Canadians go digital next year, so be prepared to most likely lose anything from Canada.

When they go digital will they also be reducing broadcast power to 10% of the previous broadcast power like the USA did?
