Are you aware that HD broadcasts ("digital") are available
and can be received by an old rooftop antenna? If you do
not have a digital TV, you can get a digital/analog converter
box. In fact, the FCC was offering a $40 rebate to anyone
purchasing such a box (I think the deal may be over now,
but you can check with a web search). I remember at one
point there was a converter box that sold for $40, so with
the rebate people could get the box for no out-of-pocket
cost.
