I lost the signal a while back using an old antenna, so I recently upgraded. Still no WAFB. Using the clearstream 2 antenna.

Any advice? I get every other channel perfectly clear.


ETA: Do any of the live streaming options have local channels?

For the record WAFB is actually a VHF channel and the antenna you have seems to have better gain on UHF as opposed to VHF. That may be part of the issue, but I'm heading out of my depth on that one.

You always want to pay attention to the physical channel, not just the channel that you tune to on your TV.

I had this issue picking up a VHF station on a UHF only antenna. I was eventually able to get it. Just took a lot more fine tuning of the antenna direction than the other channels.
