Since there's so much hdtv talk going on, I figured I'd let everyone know about http://www.antennaweb.org. This website will let you put in your address and find out exactly what kind of over-the-air digital television you can expect to receive. It takes into account terrain not just distance from transmitters.

Based on my address, it told me I should be able to get 10 channels just by putting up a small omni-directional antenna (yellow - uhf). So I borrowed a uhf antenna (read: indefinitely :)) from a co-worker and after figuring out how to get my tv to use the antenna tuner rather than the cable tuner, I was able to auto-detect 11 hdtv channels (all the network stations including 3 cbs channels and a couple spanish channel which might come in handy for soccer games). I didn't even have to take the antenna outside I was able to pick it up right in my living room.

I'm now chillin' out to high-def Jay Leno for free, check it out...
