    I'm bringing this thread back up, because the quality of our channels has gone from good to utter crap. Local channels (2, 13) pixelate, freeze, and sometimes just drop off altogether. As we're in the southern part of Denver, I'm not sure why we're losing our signal. We've got one of those flat digital antennas inside; it doesn't really do squat. It would be nice to watch local TV again. I'm not sure why we've lost channel integrity, but it's frustrating! I've looked at antennaweb and TV fool, and they say different things. I've also read that if you get the wrong kind of antenna, it can interfere with other channels. Do we need an outdoor antenna? Who do I look for to install it? I don't know how to do any of this stuff.

    Leaves on trees.. I'm guessing that the timing of your drop in signal corresponds to the change in foliage from spring to summer. Get your antenna up higher or get a stronger antenna.
