You may chuckle that real TV antennas are a remnant of the past. The current TV consumer expects 400 to 500 channels, premier movie channels, and a big monthly bill. Now many DTV viewers are looking to DTV antennas to get the same high quality audio and video quality. The price: no monthly bill, just the expense of purchasing and installing the antenna. Though a HDTV antenna will not get you 400 channels, there are advantages to OTA (over-the-air) reception.
Best Digital Antenna
One of the newest advantages is that OTA reception is transmitted in digital format. The digital tv picture is better than the old analog picture. While the analog picture was known for snow and picture ghosting, the digital tv picture is chisp. The sound is better, too. Some broadcast stations broadcast in standard definition, others have upgraded to HDTV broadcasts. Still other stations broadcast in standard definition during the day and HDTV during evening prime time.
Dtv Antennas
As you know, OTA digital TV reception is free except for the expense of the DTV antenna. The greatest limitation is that you get local channels. Some DTV antenna users with the best digital antennas are able to tune into out of town stations. Others have been able to catch sports events that have been "blacked out" in the local area.
Best DTV Antenna
The greatest predominance of local digital TV channels are in large metropolitan areas. However, local DTV channels can be found everywhere. Including rural areas, 90% of viewers in the USA can get 6 or more DTV channels.
In addition to the digital antenna, you will need an HDTV tuner to receive the dtv transmission. However, check your set and receiver. On newer tv’s, the DTV tuner may be built in. If you have "integrated" HDTV or an ATSC tuner, you have the necessary components. And if you have the DISH or DirectTV package, the receiver probably has an over-the-air (OTA) HDTV tuner.
You can find the digital TV stations in your area by checking AntennaWeb.org website.
