Re: Cable/Satellite vs. The Broadcast Networks

Yeah I have one of the BBQ grill style antennas. It cost me $100, and I get CTV, CBC, Sun TV, OMNI 1 and 2 and CHCH all in High Definition from Toronto. I also get Global in standard definition.

From Buffalo I get NBC, ABC, CBS, FOX and CW all in HD.

Re: CYHM Apmts.

There are plenty of cheap apartments for rent on the mountain. I would try and stay away from downtown if I were you. Westdale is nice but is loaded with McMaster students.

Theres also Caledonia, Hagersville, Jarvis and some other small places to the south.
