I've tried everything I know. I've unplugged all dish network plugs and left only power supply and rabbit ear antenna to tv. I then run auto tune on tv and get 3 of the 4 local channels (& those 3 are VERY snowy). Adjusting rabbit ears helps some but nowhere enough. Am I doing this correctly? If so, why does everyone keep telling me I have to tune to some "-1 or -2" version of the channel to get HD? How do I do this? Is that if I was going through the dish network box? Any suggestions are greatly appreciated.

If you live far away from the transmission towers, or if you don't point your antenna DIRECTLY to the direction of the towers, you will not get much of a signal.
Go to antennaweb.org and find out what type of antenna is best for your location and the optimum direction you need to point your off-the-air antenna. You may need to get an external off-the-air antenna.
However, if you have Dish, ask them to upgrade you with an HD receiver.
