Then all of a sudden last Friday, none of the antennas were picking up all the broadcast stations any longer - they each picked up a few only.
I played with the living room antenna position last night with no luck getting all the stations back - where before I was getting a couple of 'green lights' with the signal strength indicator, now I'm not.

By the way, interesting timing. According to an article over at
Boston-area TV stations are shifting to make room for mobile data, beginning the week of July 30, 2019: "Many Boston-area TV stations are shifting their spot on the airwaves this week, requiring people who use over-the-air antennas to rescan their television sets to find them again." And this, as well: "Nine major Boston stations, including the main networks and PBS, will be making the transition between now and Friday." "The Boston-area stations changing frequencies include CBS 4, ABC 5, Fox 25, NBC 10, PBS 44, PBS 2, UniMas 27, Channel 68, and Channel 23."
Re-scan and see what happens.
