There are still a lot of OTA TVs out there. For the lucky many areas
don't have stations left in LOW VHF. In Central Michigan we do and are
in the fringe areas for a number of low VHF stations. At the other end
2-meters can do a real job on channel 12 if there is an antenna close to
you. The only TVI I ever had was 2-meters getting into a neighbors set.
I gave him a good directional TV antenna and that was the end of the
problem.
