Say What ??? !!!

It manifests itself somewhat differently, but you can definitely have
multipath problems with digital broadcasts, especially in reflector strewn
areas like Manhattan.

beww


I do not think you understand how 8-vsb(VSB) is working
see. http://www.broadcast.net/~sbe1/8vsb/8vsb.htm..
....it is possible to have (dynamic multi path interference)  i.e.. trees in 
high wind (moving objects between the transmitting and receiving antennas), 
it is impossible to receive a  8vsb-modulated HDTV signal in a moving 
vehicle..........

but as far as multi path interference i.e.. antenna on your house with no 
trees directly in front of it......YOU WILL NOT HAVE....multi path 
interference.....unless your house is going down the road or moving....if it 
is flying through the air you might be allright..
