That's pretty much the case, but signals can be refracted or
reflected. People who are in Pasadena and whodo have a line of sight
view of the transmitting antennas aren't going to need much of an
antenna. I have a USB TV tuner that plugged into a laptop and around
Allen and Queensberry, it works fine with the telescoping whip that
came with it for both analog and digital signals.

As I wrote before, I think that channel 9 with be the only VHF channel
used in this area and that the rest will be UHF.
