I am totally new to OTA-thought about taking the plunge a few years ago when we lived elsewhere and I ran a TVFool report, joined the forum, but other stuff got busy and I kind of forgot about it. Now we are in a new house in a slightly different area and are recommitting to OTA because we're not happy with the service (or price) from our current satellite provider.
Here is our TVFool report:

The "must have" stations are WCBS2, WNBC4, WNYW5, and WABC7 and PBS stations WNJB8 and WNJT43. Anything else would be considered gravy. Basically we are going to to be streaming all other content but just want to be able to access local networks for news and sports. What I'm wondering though is how realistic it is to expect trouble free reception through varied weather conditions, etc... The wife is an OTA skeptic, and if I can't reliably pull in the local news channels this whole project will be scuttled in favor of sticking with satellite or cable.
