I used to be able to get a whole lot of stations OTA until they all went
digital.  Now I also get none OTA.

I half-wonder if they didn't force this conversion not only to be able to
sell licenses to part of the band to non-TV services, but also to push
people to pay services like cable and sattelite.

Of course, those last two are by now being replaced with streaming, but
that was not really a thing back when this started.
