The last time I checked around here, about a year ago, I could only get on my living-room TV, with rabbit ears, one translator station on channel 51 (W51BI in Kirtland, Ohio, near Cleveland; may be a translator or booster for an OTA affiliate of the Trinity Broadcasting Network), and the reception wasn't that good. I don't know if that station is still around or not.

The FCC will be requiring even LPTV and translator stations in the US to convert to DTV by, IIRC, next year or 2012; not sure just when. Canada's DTV transition is set for 2012, and I read here recently that Mexico's TV stations will be all digital by 2015 at the latest.
