anyone in Ottawa getting HD OTA from Manotick?

[**DONOTDELETE**]

I have a BEV 6000 and am wondering if it is worth getting the OTA module?

I would suggest that you contact the station engineer directly to see if your location falls within the Grade A or B maps for their digital signal.

If it does, visit the avsforum on HD hardware and read up on the limitations of 1st generation OTA tuners (especially Echostar 6000)

A colleague is Richmond has received it...haven't talked to him lately.

Wait til the new lower priced 3rd generation OTA models come out this spring/summer. They will be cheaper and much better at capturing a signal in multipath situations. Multipath is typically found close to a transmitter where there are obstructions between transmitter/receiver and in distant locations, beyond the line of sight, where refraction is necessary to receive signal.

HEY! I live in Manotick,not sure where the transmitter is,but I got a 6000 & a sony HDTV.But I think some where in the 70's on OTA I haven't been able to receive anything.Either I live to close to the tansmitter or I don't got the proper anttenna to receive it.I know my 6000 can't something to to do with a "modulaler or something like that.
