As we had warned earlier, after the June 12th switch , some stations cut their power by over 90%* , making reception nearly impossible. (Note: some stations were forced to cut power by order of the FCC.)<\/p>\n<p>Quote from the article:<\/p>\n<p><em>&#8220;The FCC says some stations in Chicago and Philadelphia may have to apply for power boosts and are in discussions with stations there about their various technical issues.<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>But for viewers still having trouble, the FCC is talking with stations about possible long-term solutions from their end. If stations have to officially ask for more power, the FCC will take that seriously, he said. But that will also include figuring out who the boosted power might interfere with, and what dominoes that might trigger elsewhere&#8221;<\/em><\/p>\n<p>UPDATE 08-11-09: We have learned not all of the reception problems are solely related to the power reductions. We have been informed that many of the issues are with urban dwellers relatively close to the transmitting towers. This could be for a variety of reasons unrelated to a TV stations ERP such as:<\/p>\n<p class=\"MsoPlainText\"><span style=\"font-size: x-small; font-family: Arial;\"><span style=\"font-size: 10pt; font-family: Arial;\">Antenna issues<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"MsoPlainText\" style=\"margin-left: 0.5in;
