Jim, You might want to "READ IT AGAIN" yourself. Here's where the misunderstanding started.
John wrote that if the digital is on a very different frequency, reception may be different. Your response was that if your antenna worked on one, it should work on the other, "Period." You appeared to have a misunderstanding. Don't get mad at people who try to help. That's kinda why this place exists. Quoted below for your convenience. Perhaps now we can all move on. 73, Paul, AE4KR ----- Original Message ----- From: wd8chl To: Repeater-Builder@yahoogroups.com Sent: Monday, February 23, 2009 7:10 AM Subject: Re: [Repeater-Builder] Somewhat OT - How to make HDTV *really* work JOHN MACKEY wrote: > If the digital is on a very different frequency, then the frequency > change is a reason why digital reception may be problematic.

If it works on analog Ch 7, for instance, it should work on digital ch 7. Period. If it doesn't, there is something inherently wrong with the medium. Again, RF is RF. The antenna doesn't care how it's modulated.
