Access to CBC in rural areas has actually gotten worse since the switch to digital only broadcasting a while back. My dad hasn't had cablr for years now he lost CBC shortly after that on the Sunshine Coast. Even after buying and then modifying and improving a couple digital antennas now.

Anybody know much about extended those signals or successfully increasing the gain locally? Sounds like an interesting and probably expensive problem which is why I am going to guess for now more effort hasn’t been made to extend those signals further.
