I have a question about this HDTV thing?

I have more channels that are basically useless. And some of the channels that I use to get won't come in - like ABC for instance! What can I do that isn't going to cost more money than that silly little box already has!??! I'm just a little frustrated with the new fangled "better" that doesn't work as good as the old stand by did!

Any suggestions? Please HELP!!!

Update:

Thanks, The antenae is the same one I had before so I hope I don't have to buy a new one. I'll try re-adjusting it and hopefully won't lose any other channels!

Nope, I don't have comcast!

Update 2:

Thanks RT! Readjusting the Antenae did work!! I only lost one chanel and I don't watch that one much any way!!

You've got 10 points!!:o)

    I'm sorry about your frustration. Change is always a challenge.

    Missing channels are usually because of a poor signal into the box. I would start with re-aiming the antenna you have. If that doesn't work, you will need a better antenna.

    Visit http://www.antennaweb.org/ . Based on your zip code, you will get suggestions on the proper antennas for your unique situation and assistance on where to aim it.
