lost channel 7.1 after the digital changeover

[BlahBlahYouToo]

didn't post this earlier because i don't watch tv much, but right after the DTV changeover, i lost 7.1 (abc, ny metro area).

all the other ones work, but i think the reception is slightly worse on those as well.

What is their frequency? If they moved from a UHF to VHF frequency you may have to follow these steps to get it back (I had to do this on my grandparents tuner after a station did the same thing)

1) Disconnect antenna
2) Run a channel scan (obviously it will find nothing)
3) Reconnect antenna
4) Run a channel scan

If that doesn't work you may need to re-aim your antenna or place your antenna in a better location. Or you may need a VHF antenna....too little information to tell for sure.

thx, will give that a shot and report back.

seems to have worked after moving the antenna over a couple of feet.
