I reccommend preamps from the following manufacturers: Winegard, Channel Master I reccommend antennas from the following manufacturers: Winegard, Channel Master, Antennas Direct If mounted indoors, you may need to go one or two size classes up from the CEA reccommendations. Good news is that this means your TV stations are close by, as that is the smallest antenna category there is! Basically, any antenna made by a member of the CEA will have its category on the packaging. Yellow UHF is a category of antennas - small omnidirectional. If you click on the antenna reccommendation on (in your case "yellow UHF"), it'll give a more detailed description. Note: Unlike the old analog signals where image quality depended on signal strength, with digital signals you pretty much either get the signal or you don't. You'll get far higher quality if you get a new HDTV. Newer TVs all come with built in digital tuners. Yes, with older TVs you need a converter box. This is not something I know much wrote:Īlso, do I need a digital converter box and a tv antenna? I've been researching this but it is very confusing to me. In the end, anything I choose will end up paying for itself - eventually - once I stop paying Comcast $19/month for nothing. I heard that has a bunch of inexpensive TV sets if BestBuy doesn't have what I am looking for. Can anyone make any recommendations for a TV antenna that will work with my older TVs? Or, does anyone know whether the new TVs come with built in antennas? I am not adverse to buying a nice new TV for my living room. I don't have the ability to put a massive antenna on my rooftop. I have older TV sets all purchased 10-15 years ago that still work fine. I am paying $19/month, including taxes, for the channels I *think* I can get with an antenna for free.
The only channel I will actually miss is the Fox News Channel. and have decided that I really don't want to spend the money on that given my TV viewing habits and my ability to view programs on the internet. I have looked into pricing for the more expensive cable packages through Comcast, Dish, DirectTV etc. I used to have more extensive cable channels but with their switch to digital, my channels have dropped down to just the free channels and a few other meaningless channels that no one ever watches. I've been getting my cable through Comcast for awhile now.
