Don’t you need an antenna to get OTA reception?

Generally - yes. Coaxial cable all by itself is good enough to pick up a handful of channels in a metro area. I included this MacGuyver antenna I threw together in another thread recently...




3ft piece of coax + tweezers + ab old socket box = HDTV football viewing when DirectTV went out during a thunderstorm.

You cant pick up HD with old school antennae. its Money well spent


You can get HD with a paper clip if you’re close enough to the source. Digital signals don’t work that way.

I laugh every time someneone tells me that they have bought a "digital" antenna...sorry bro, but they are all digital.


I laugh everytime someone says that all antennas are digital...sorry bro, but they are all analog.

The signal may be digital but the carrier wave is analog.
