Winston Salem NC Voom

Looking at Voom, but like everyone I am concered about OTA reception. I am about 30 miles from the towers but they are in opposite directions.
Anyone else from this area?

I know you are looking for local to winston but I'm in Cary.. i only get 2 OTA channels. I've just learned to deal with it because I like the HD channels so much. I do miss the local news some times though.

I'm in Lewisville - a mile or two away Clemmons and I get channel 26, 12, 2, 45, and channel 36 (NBC) and 3 (CBS) in Charlotte with the standard antenna.

Apparently from what I've read Fox8 is broadcasting in low power and they are supposed to be increasing it sometime towards the end of May.

Thats encouraging. My wife has to have networks. DVR would be nice too, but I think she can let that go.
Are you using the Voom supplied antenna? With rabbit ears I can pick up most of the Greensboro stations. But the towers are in 2 different directions. As you are most likely aware.
Still can't decide whether to go with Voom or not. Deal runs out in a couple of weeks.
