 Everyone is familiar with the old "rabbit ears" type of indoor TV antenna. They represent a dependable way of
receiving strong local signals but they are not the only option. Recent advances in technology have made traditional
systems obsolete.
There are two primary types of indoor TV antennas. Passive (non-powered) models are what you would normally associate with the term "rabbit ears." They are inexpensive and simple to install. They are useful in areas where local television stations are just a few miles away. If the signal strength is still unacceptable, other options such as an amplified antenna can be used. An amplified indoor TV antenna can provide greater signal strength without having to resort to an large rooftop antenna. This can be especially helpful for those who live in a condominium or other building where an external option would be impractical. Make sure, however, that the amplifier can be bypassed so strong local stations don't cause overmodulation. Although some indoor TV antennas are capable of receiving HDTV signals, if this is important to you double check the antenna specifications. Many antennas don't receive the signal range necessary for reception of high definition signals. |
