I'm in Oakville; Toronto and Buffalo are nearly at right angles to me
(about 80 degrees). Nonetheless, my antenna--older Channel Master
4228--seems to haul them in pretty well.
BTW, there is a low-volume mailing list specific to our area. See MythGTA at:

Yeah, but then I developed it! ;)
More seriously, it aims to take the pain out of setting up an OS X
machine as a full-time Myth backend or frontend/backend. If you've
already done all the work to install mysql and set up launchd to
automatically start the backend, there isn't much reason to redo it.
