I guess this why the BBC produced so few westerns. :)
Salt dome ground plane in the Houston area was cited as a reason, but
this channel was well known for DX TV reception.
Ben.
from my time in cable, and growing up with antenna tv
my first 10 or so
years, I remember channel 2 used to be a prime target for
interference,
usually with motor or electrical noise, and im sure DX interference from
other stations. it was also more prone to ghosting than any other stations,
where the cable signal came in before or after the broadcast signal that
somehow leaked into the cable or the leaky tv tuner, and would show up as a
duplicate picture outline.
