There's an issue with two of the three classic broadcast TV stations, ABC, CBS or NBC in Chicago. One of them is transmitting in VHF so you basically have to live on the north side of the city to get the signal and/or have a huge honkin' external house antenna. The other significantly reduced their power output after the DTV transition, so.... you have to have a huge honkin' house antenna. The third station comes in just fine, as does Fox, PBS, and a bunch of other stuff that is sometimes pretty good classic TV syndication.
I think the classic broadcasters really just expect everyone to get cable or AT&T UVerse or Satellite so that they don't have to foot the bill for broadcast transmission anymore; then they can relicense the spectrum to the wireless companies.
