They think they can use little transmitters in everybody's house and not
interfere with your next door neighbor's digital TV.

That's because the transmitters listen before they transmit so they don't
cause interference, but they are incapable of listening during the time
they are transmitting.


How can a little plastic box on the floor under your computer hear the
same signal that a $150 ChannelMaster high gain roof mounted antenna picks
up from 75 miles away?


Intermod will cause all the nearby home TV sets to not be able to pick up
the TV station 75 miles away. Very well documented and published in many
trades.
