o The UHF band (channels 14 and higher) is more directional than VHF (channels 2-13) and more sensitive to
obstacles (such as trees, tall buildings, and mountains) that lie between your antenna and the broadcast tower.
Getting good UHF reception can be more difficult than VHF.
o If you're getting marginal reception of digital signals, both the picture and sound might freeze or break up to the
point that it's not watchable. If you're really on the fringes—either too far from a tower or with too many
obstacles in the way—you'll see a black screen that says "No signal."
