Tv antennas and Tv reception

Your Adventure continues , I gave a recommendation for a flexible use antenna set up , a all band antenna channels 2 thru 69 for the Canada stations. And a channels 7 thru 69 antenna for the American stations. You have a preamp that will connect to one of the antennas that you have. And a CPA-19 preamp will connect to the other antenna that you have. The American stations will be only digital and will be in the channel range of 7 thru 51. The Canada stations can be channels 2 thru 69. However channels 52 thru 69 have been sold to the cell phone , broadband , international companies just like in the USA , so they have more the likley taken full possetion of 52 thru 69 buy now. And that leaves Canada with channels 2 thru 51 just like in the USA. The receivable American digital stations at your location are the channel range of channels 7 thru 51. Yes there some Analog Tv stations in the USA as in Canada however Non of the Analog stations in the USA are receivable from your location. The date for complete Analog shutdown in the USA is SEP.1 2015. Canada does not currently have a complete Analog shutdown date. How ever I suspect that it will be close to the USA date because Television manufactures will not include Analog tuners to receive only a few Analog Tv stations. The remaining Analog stations now will convert to digital or go off the air.
