My area has channels 3, 5, 8, 19, 23, 25, 43 and 61, all but one transmitting from a western suburb of Cleveland. (Channel 23 is in Akron, sixty miles from Cleveland.) Where I live, a small village some 40 miles from the TV stations, I can get all but channels 8, 19 and 43 using an indoor antenna. All three stations operate with low transmitter power on their original channels (they did not move to UHF as did the others), which means my TV's channel scan skips right past them when I scan for my locals. I live in an apartment building, so cannot use an outdoor antenna for TV, ham radio or anything else (lease restrictions). Moving to a house is out of the question for me as well, since I live on a fixed income (very long story and OT).
