Why do only some come thru at 1080i? <em>From Craig in Angleton, Texas<\/em><\/p>\n<p>Hi Craig,<\/p>\n<p>The type of signal you receive really has nothing to do with your antenna, but rather the network. Fox and Disney net<\/p>\n<p>works broadcast in 720p, whereas NBC and CBS owned networks broadcast in 1080i.<\/p>\n<p>Both resolutions have their positives and negatives and I am sure there are people out there that would argue that one is superior to the other.
