There are 15-20 DTV stations within reach of a small antenna from your home. Most of those have 1080i (full HD, and better quality than Rogers digital cable). The computer shops on College St. in Toronto sell 4-bay bowtie antennas for about $40, which are good enough to pull in most of those stations, even if just mounted on a fencepost outside your home.

Alternatively, some cardboard, aluminum foil, and about 10' of copper wire, can be combined into an even better antenna (SBGH) for attic use, with about an hour of effort.

Cheers
