Choices for DTV Antenna's
DIY Antenna Guide |
Once you have checked the coverage map and located if you are within the purple circle or outside the purple circle, here are some antenna suggestions. This is only a guide. Reception varies depending on distance from the stations transmission point and where the antenna is placed in your home.
