Digital TV doesn't carry as far as analog. We get ZERO channels using

A few months back I saw a chart of the power used for the different
channels. In almost all cases the power on the HD channels was much
less
than for the old analog channels. Perhaps when they drop analog, the
power on the digital channels will be increased?
No. Part of the reason for lesser range is to provide for protection
of the area being 'serviced' by a given channel. The inability of
Washington area viewers to be able to see Baltimore stations is
considered to be a plus, not a negative.
