My mom lives about 30 miles east of NYC (zip 11758) and is having problems with the DTV box I gave her. She said she cannot get 13 and 2 and 4 are sometimes bad. I plan to replace her very old VHF/FM/UHF antenna and exterior wiring when I visit her in a few weeks. Interior wiring was replaced a long time ago.
My search found posts about problems with digital 13 and sometime other channels. So I am hoping she will only need a simple high band vhf/uhf antenna, something like the Winegard HD-1080 2-Bay Bowtie UHF with High Band VHF Antenna. I rally don't want to put a high gain antenna up.
I looked at tvfool.com and my interpretation is a simple antenna like Winegard HD-1080 should work.
Could someone verify my interpretation of TVfool.com for this zip code (11758)?
Could someone give me the latest status of digital stations (especially 13) in the NYC area?
