While it is true that the antennas work the same, it is not true that the channels are the same as they were in the analog days. "Back then", channel 7 was broadcast on VHF channel 7. Today we call these "virtual channels" as channel 7 can now be broadcast on VHF 7 (rarely) but can also be broadcast on a variety of UHF channels. So, if your TV scans channel 7 on UHF 35 you will not get channel 7 at the next location if it is being broadcast on any frequency other than UHF 35. What might happen is that you will not get channel 7 but find that you can get channel 20. This happens when the next place you move is broadcasting channel 20 on UHF 35!
