Does anyone know if the Milwaukee WB is in HD?  I was watching Smallville tonight and the guide said that is was in HD.  It was not in HD but this is the first time I had seen the guide through my Directv box saying that anything on WB was in HD.  I went to tomorrow night and Tuesday on the guide and all of the prime time shows on WB all said HD?  I guess I will find out tomorrow night when Everwood is on.

Thanks.

The guide is right that WB has programs in HD,however Milwaukee's WB (18) isn't transmitting any HD except for color bars on 18-2 at this time, and they aren't talking to anyone about their plans.

Thanks, Maybe some day we will get the WB in HD here in Milwaukee.  I live in Port Washington so I am unable to pick up the WB out of Chicago.  It sounds like some are able to do that.  At least we have quite a bit in HD for now.  Of course, we always want more...

I haven't been able to get a watchable signal when my antenna is pointed towards Chicago and WGN-DT, ch. 19.  Must not be strong like WFLD-DT, ch. 31 and WMAQ-DT, ch. 29 in which I can get sometimes.

We haven't had any real strong signals from Chicago since I re-installed my antenna system.  I have received Chicago's WB which is WGN-DT digital signal but not strong enough to provide a stable picture and sound.  I live in Muskego which is about 90 miles from Chicago.

But right now I'm afraid to use the rotor, and rather not until we see temps above 40.  Ice buildup and even cold weather, can be hard on mechanical items on the roof.
