That's why you're not getting WCBS.
The FCC allowed channel 33 to be used in both NYC and in Hartford. Your antenna is likely picking up both and they're interfering with each other which results in neither being received. However, WCBS does operate a translator on channel 22 due east of you out on the Island. Try aiming due east and see if your TV set allows you to specify tuning that channel (22). Some sets, notably a number or LG and Samsung, allow such direct access tuning.
