Rich: Just as Charlie said above. Often, the CGs are well outside good coverage via the rooftop antenna, or in a valley or other obstructed area. DTV gives good picture quality no mtter where you are.

Plus, the big advantage is the ability to decide when you want to watch a particular show. 3 hrs difference in time. You can watch Leno before Boston Legal if you want to or stay out late at dinner and know you can catch the 8PM programming at 11 PM. And, if you happen to be an East Coaster or West Coaster, you may care more about the area news on one or the other "feeds" You get the New York newscasts as well as just the network programs via the East Coast feed, likewise the LA news via the West Coast feed. Gives you "choices". I'm not sure which one you get without the optional sevice...I seem to remember that it is East Coast....but that may be dependent on your location...don't remember.
