Don't I know it! As it is, I am on the fringes of the broadcast, so I sometimes get nothing but static. Believe it or not, it's taken me at least 7 frustrating years of moving an antenna around, hooking up a rooftop aerial, trying so many different combinations of wires and antennas, I think I might have finally found the right combination by simply adding 3 feet to my dipole antenna and snaking it up the wall to the second floor of my house. I have never gotten a stereo signal, but I have been moderately successful in tuning in clean mono (moreso over the past month, but even at that, I still had one show a few weeks ago with static at the 3rd hour for about 45 minutes).
But by and large, the actual over-the-air broadcast is much more reliable than the internet one.
