Gus, you didn't mention what kind of antenna that you are using, but it's a safe bet that a better antenna, one that has particularly good VHF-high-band gain, will go a long way to helping you. Many people in the Montreal area get good reception of the Burlington-Plattsburgh stations, even on the Island, but digital VHF stations broadcast with considerably less power than do their UHF digital counterparts. I suggest mounting a high-gain VHF-high-band plus UHF antenna on your roof, and use a rotator: you'll see all the Burlington-Plattsburgh stations as well as the Montreal stations. You should also see WFFF, the FOX station and the two PBS stations from VT-NY when using a good outdoor antenna. I would suggest looking for a Winegard HD-7696P and a rotator, or possibly an AntennasCraft HBU-44
