It gets worse than that. I live only 12-15 miles from the transmitters

wipes out the signal temporarily. Out of the 20 DTV channels
available, I can only get 4 on a dependable basis. In order to get the
others, I will need to buy yet another antenna that is more
directional than the omni-directional one I purchased specifically for
these signals.

And the sales of rotators will soar. Many neighborhoods have
prohibitions on outside antennas used for terrestrial broadcasting.
Without outside antennas, lots of viewers are going to have avery hard
time getting useable signals into their sets.
