We have had a big box tv with a radio shack ears/loop antenna for 3 years and received Chs 2,5,8,11,17,30,46,69 w/o much problem.
We bought a flat screen this weekend and got a new amplified flat, RCA antenna.
Although the new antenna now picks up a dozen or so additional channels, neither it nor the old one now pick up ch 8 (PBS/GPB and a must have in our house). (all the other originally listed channels are fine, maybe better with the new attenna).
