Wondering if anyone can shed some light on this for me. I recently had DISH Network installed, and I'm pciking up my locals OTA. I've mounted my antenna (Radioshack Indoor/Outdoor Amplified VHF/UHF Antenna) on my roof, near my satellite dish. Upon doing a local channel scan, I pick up 10 channels. Every single one has 100% signal strength, except WBNS. It jumps back and forth between the mid-90s to "signal lost". Watching the channel is impossible, as every five seconds, the signal is lost, and then it reconnects.

I'm located on Strawberry Farms Blvd, Columbus, OH 43230 and have my antenna pointed SW towards the WBNS broadcast tower (same direction as my satellite dish).

Does WBNS just require a stronger antenna? Could there be network problems that I'm just experiencing? Any advice would be appreciated!
