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. 8, 2009 with Erie, Utica, Syracuse & Rochester!


This was my adventure receiving TV stations from Erie, PA / Utica, NY / Syracuse, NY and Rochester, NY on September 8, 2009 from my home in Markham, Ontario, Canada. I captured quite a few newscasts, and got my first extensive look at the hard to receive WFXP from Erie, PA! (Lots of great logo shots!) I also picked up WSEE on RF16 (which is normally blocked by Rochester's WXXI!)
