I used to live on the 21th floor of an appartment building at islington
and the 401, facing south.  I could usually get 15 to 20 stations with
rabbit ears.  Anything from the CN tower or buffalo was pretty easy to
get, with things from hamilton/cambridge area a little bit harder to get
a good signal on.  Of course anything north of me I couldn't get due to
the building being in the way.  As far as I could tell from talking to a
few neighbours, everyone on the north side of the building had satelite
or cable, and most people on the south side didn't bother. :)
