For those in this area, I received the following to a request for OTA support:
From WRAL:
My name is Patrice, and I am the administrative assistant for the Engineering Department at WRAL-TV. You and I spoke on the phone yesterday. To answer your question, WRAL-TV is currently giving away antennas to any viewer who has purchased an HDTV or receiver. In order to participate in the giveaway, I need the following from viewers:
Copy of the sales receipt for an HDTV or receiver
A delivery address (must be a street address…no PO box numbers)
Home telephone number (for delivery purposes only…no one will call unless there’s a problem with delivery)
Viewers can send me this information via email, fax, or regular mail. The email address is wral-tvengineeringinfo@wral.com
The fax number is 919-821-8679. And our mailing address is:
WRAL-TV Antenna Giveaway
PO Box 12000
Raleigh, NC 27605
Once I receive a viewer’s proof of purchase information, I forward it to Matt Brandes, our Transmitter Supervisor. He runs a terrain study, and then emails me with the antenna model number that will work best for that viewer’s location. I order that particular model for the viewer from the manufacturer, and they ship it directly to viewer.
Hope this information is helpful.
