I have trouble picking up CBS in BR on my Leaf antenna but get other channels, such as PBS, in beautiful HD. The problem is apparently because WAFB broadcasts via VHF rather than UHF and the best reception is on an antenna at least half the wavelength (the Leaf is too small). Rabbit ears or an old-fashion roof-top antenna are actually much better.

Don't buy an expensive HD Antenna for WAFB. It wont work. Cheap rabbit ears is what you need for WAFB.

Also you must have a digital TV obviously.
