Yeah, it's really weird. The TV was my old Samsung plasma. It's probably 7 years old. I had really strong signal from most NYC channels and then plugged that tuner/receiver in and had trouble receiving certain channels that were perfect before. Luckily, I don't use it a ton so it doesn't matter...but it still sucks.

Anymore many channels can be broadcast on a single frequency. So when they do that, all the channels have to share the limited bandwith. There's a religious channel nearby that puts 6 SD channels on a single frequency, looks bad but they don't care. My local HD NBC channel went from 15Mbps for the main HD channel to 11MBps for the main HD channel, when 2 SD channels were added on the same frequency.

According to wikipedia, after you account for overhead a single frequency can carry ~18.3 Mbit/s of actual video data on the ATSC system. So if you give each 1080i channel 7-8Mbit, and then the remainder to the SD channel it can work but would not be great. They are probably using an adaptive bitrate between all the channels. So the channel with a more demanding content will be allotted more than the other channels, making better use of the limited bandwidth. I've seen this behavior with one of my local stations.
