Digital TV Rocks!
I will move sometime over the next few months and I cancelled my cable tv service a few weeks ago. I got some rabbit ears, but I really could only pick up a few channels and they were snowy. But I went to US government digital TV website and honestly said that my only source of tv signals was an antenna. They sent me two $40 coupons for a digital converter box. I bought a converter with one of the coupons and hooked it up. Whoa! I get 17 channels and they are better than cable ever was. It really is unbelievable!
I don't watch that much TV anyway. I may just forget about cable!
