Welcome to TV Garth!

Ever since I was a kid, I loved antennas and TV reception. It was always a thrill to hook up an antenna and see what stations I could get, and see if I could pick up anything from a far distance. With the transition to digital broadcasting happening, my love for OTA (over the air) reception came back and this blog will focus on what channels I'm able to receive via antenna from my home just outside of Toronto, Canada. Plus there may be occasional commentaries on shows that I see while adjusting my reception.

Reception Reports: Sept. 4-7, 2009 with Rochester, Syracuse & Utica!


These were my adventures DXing TV stations from Rochester, NY / Syracuse, NY and Utica, NY between September 4-7, 2009 from my home in Markham, Ontario, Canada. (The exception was Sept 5, where I DXed Rochester at my friend Mr. A's downtown Toronto apartment.) There was a LOT of high school football coverage going on (including reports from the handsome Steve Infanti on Syracuse's WSYR!) This also coincided with Labor Day Weekend, which found the Jerry Lewis Telethon popping up on Rochester's WHEC (I also captured a promo for it on WSYR.)
