The Jets' games are carried on channel 2 New York, which is 102 miles
as the crow flies from my house. Football packages on satellite TV
are beyond present financial condition. I only care about channel 2,
New York.

I thought all VHF television transmission will be discontinued as of
February 2009. Building a VHF antenna would seem to be a
wasted effort. You need to think how you can receive the
same station on UHF digital. There are plenty of UHF antennas
available; you may also need a low noise, mast-head, pre-amplifier
to get a good signal.

WCBS, CH2 NY, will be on UHF channel 33 (digital) after 2/17/09. So, don't
waste your money on a ch 2 antenna.
