Where in MD are you? Thats the exact same thing thats happening with us. Digital TV in the livingroom only gets channels 2 22 24 45 and 54 it took me a minute to start getting channel 13 after pointing the antenna ears down and back facing NE, as long as its in that posistion and that posistion only we get 13 out in the livingroom but if u move it an inch the signal is gone and channel 13 too (the WJZ tower must be northeast or east of Columbia). The same thing happens with the regular analog TV's with convertors in the other rooms. I dont know where in MD you are but if youre anywhere near Columbia try laying your antenna ears back at a steep angle ( point them both facing behind the antenna and down) and point the whole antenna itself facing northeast or east and youll probably get channel 13.

But like you say the other regular analog TVs in the house with convertor boxes pick up channel 11 fine now, but I notice whenever I rescan on the analog TV's I have to manually ADD channel 11 right after or else it wont show up at all. Today I tried to see if that was the problem on the Digital out in the livingroom but theres no easy way to add channels on it still trying to figure out how to do it until i find the manual that came with it. So im just gonna try and add channel 11 manually on it and hopefully that works if not I figure it needs a signal boost and just need to connect a convertor box or digital tuner to it to help it out, since all the other channels come up fine with the convertor box in the rest of the house thats obviously the problem.[/QUOTE]
