OK, gotcha

So... I can get some stuff in HD now, but need an antenna to get it. In 2005 if all these stations have to conform, I will feel left out. I can only get ABC and some UHF stations off rabbit ears. I cannot get CBS, NBC, Fox, UPN (no loss), WB (no loss), or PBS. ABC comes in really crappy as it is.

It's my understanding that you either get signal with HD, or you don't. It's my impression that I cannot get HD in any form as it is right now. So, if I am still in this appartment in 2005, I will still be stuck in 20th century. This annoys me and I may start looking for a house in the sticks with land to put up a BUD. Yes, TV rules my life.
