I figured that seeing as some discussion about CFCN (CTV Calgary) now broadcasting Over The Air (OTA) has been buried in several different threads, we should have a dedicated thread and discuss our respective results.
Looking over at Digital Home, it would appear that there is some controversy about what kind of antenna is needed, and how much you should expect to spend. I'm sure that like the rest of us here getting the signal uncompressed would be neat, but not worth spending a whack of cash on.
So if you are going to post a success or failure, be sure to indicate what kind of antenna you are using, what tuner you are using, and what part of the city you are in.
Last night I tried a simple set of rabbit ears (that came with a CRT TV) and used my Bell 6100 receiver. I live in Copperfield. Couldn't pick up CFCN-HD; but I also couldn't get Global or City analog; and the old trusty CBC was even snowy.
My other question, has anybody tried this antenna from Monoprice?
