Antenna will not work on tv. Cable is out due to storm. Tried rabbit ears and can't get local stations. Why?

It depends on what you mean by "local stations". If you're trying to receive one of the major networks, it's because they have gone HD. (High Definition). You would need one of those HD converter box that was sold before the stations went HD. (Remember the government was handing out vouchers for people who did not have cable?). So if it's not a major local station and perhaps it's a smaller station with a somewhat small signal, then it could be the strength of that signal as well.
