I got rid of cable a few weeks ago, and I read all these great reviews on the radio shack website on this 12 dollar "radio shack budget antenna" its an indoor antenna, plugged it in, scanned for channels, and found 20 channels, and the HD was better than time warner's. its the cheapest antenna on the site, and its the one that works best. I'm glad I bought it
congratulations dude you did what the antennae ALREADY DOES. If you have a decent antenaee hooked up to your house like the old ones, they get FREE HD shows over the air have for the past 2 years now and you do not need boosters you just need an HDTV. this video is absolute crap.
@surikan1 They stopped ANALOG broadcasting and changed it to DIGITAL broadcasting format... The ANALOG TV's cannot pick it up because they have an ANALOG ONLY tuner, that's what the converter boxes are for. The DIGITAL TV's already have a DIGITAL tuner, so no need for the converter box
With more and more people getting rid of their overpriced cable and dishes, more free channels are starting up over the air broadcast. One new one starting in January is called Antenna TV...it is like Nick at Nite TV land but has lots more classic TV shows.
you have to be kidding me that is bad. F Y I when you go to radio shack they have know idea what they selling you. So boys and girls leave the wiring up to the satellite guys cause really if i go to one more house to hook up dish and see that crap im gonna freak out

They Way I set up mine was I called time warner and had them install,canceled next day and just ran a drop from an outdoor antenna to the box and used the free amplifier they left connected to my living room tv. So now I basicly have a professional looking setup while only paying for the tvs,coax cable,and the antenna.
A great resource is tv fool, which can give you a map of local stations near your physical address. That way you know what direction to point your antenna.
@zomgbbqwth - guys, remember~ this is ONLY for "FREE TO AIR" channels~ not for cable tv"
Technically this antenna is for Free "Over The Air" or OTA broadcast channels, as "Free To Air" or FTA refers to unencrypted satellite signals. The not cable part is correct.
The antenna works, but if youre out far the best thing I found is VIEWSATNOW for free channels from any satellite in space... and its supposedly legal too, check it out
@aago1254 I have one myself, I don't really like it, but a person could hook a OTA antenna and watch locals as well, most FTA boxes (if not all these days) have a hook up for a OTA ariel.
Not to ruin the fun,but I purchased a basic cheap $8 antenna{indoor} hooked it up to my HDTV and watched march-madness{CBS} in Crystal clear High Def. you don't need a fancy expensive HD antenna and amplifier to receive HD ABC,NBC,FOX,CBS and PBS programing
@watso64 Not everyone live in your location. You might stay near the network's transmitter. Many people live in suburban/rural areas and may have a harder time receiving those channels. This will require an amplified outdoor mounted anntenna. And you may think your $8 setup may be fine for you but you could be missing out on other channels. You just dont realise it because you never connected a more powerful antenna before.
@treyatl2006 I have a RCA 110 ant antenna and get 31 channels. Most are in the same position. I live about 55-60 miles outside of Philadelphia and still get 50% signal. I believe my the antenna was $10 I will probably upgrade in a few months to an amplified model.
@640101vh I think you are missing the point. The point is most people in rural areas cant receive many channels using unamplified antenna. What about the people who are outside those 50 miles. I want 2 know if those miles are driving distance miles or linear distance miles? Linear miles would be more appropriate. Anyway I know because I live on the outskirts of metro Atlanta and I can only get a few channels until I added an amplifier to my antenna. I live about 65 linear lin miles 4rm da trans

True but even rabbit ears (with UHF loop) will work if you live close to the transmitters, but you can't beat a proper outdoor antenna which can also pull in more channels from further away.
Hope thats a temp install - the box with the cord belongs indoors only. Same setup that people have used for over the air for decades only now you need a line of sight antenna to get good reception with digital. No snow for weak signal like analog, just a black screen. Use RG6 or better and wrap the outdoor F connections with connector tape (Radio Shack sells it) to keep water out. Def get a lightning arrestor in the coax once you finalize that setup.
If you are going to mount an antenna outside, you need some sort of lightning arrester that is connected to ground. That way, if lightning hits the antenna, the charge is safely directed to ground, instead of destroying and possibly setting fire to your equipment.
@sim2lew I have antennas and I install towers and antennas - metal is way better than trees for conduction and lightning isnt like an arc - it's so much electricity it can hit numerous things at one time - antenna, tree, ground, buried sewer lines, etc. A $5 lightning arrestor and $10 copper or zinc coated iron 8 ft grounding rod is cheap compared to a fire or death (yeah you can die if you are on a landline phone or in contact with TV equip when they get zapped). It's no joke with lightning
Nobody here in the UK earths their antenna (aerial in UK). In storms the static energy can be sucked into equipment or the amp/booster, but connecting it to earth makes it attractive to lightning as it's a route to earth and that's what it's after! there are for's and against's, some big systems are earthed!
Lightning may get to that amp he has on his antenna, but its fairly rare, i should know, ive been doing them professionally for 27 years, so nuff said!
@bjornredtail Even with cable or satellite a lightning arrestor on the cable is a necessity. Even phone lines need lightning arrestors - any conductor exposed to the open outside can be a carrier if a strike happens along the line. Matter of fact the National Electrical Code (NEC) covers lightning protection for outdoor communications equipment (antennas, cable, satellite, etc). Lightning hitting an unprotected antenna, mast, coax, etc can even start a fire in the building.
@bjornredtail Even with the best possible arresting setup, it is not possible to get 100% lightning protection, as a Ham I know this all to well, it is best to have a gas discharge aresstor grounded with thick solid single strand copper (not copper plated aluminum or steel) and have every leg of the tower, pole mast or post grounded to a 10ft or more copper plated rod, (no aluminum, soil can destroy aluminum quite quickly) it is just best to disconnect your coax and keep it away from conductors
If you have Comcast, Charter, or Cox Cable just order the internet and leave off the TV and Phone package. Hook the Coaxial to your Flatscreen and use the built in TV Tuner to scan for all the channels. You will get way more channels than you do over the air as the Over air trick doesn't work in all locations. I've tried it on the Coaxial and I get almost everything and other channels I had to upgrade to see. I only pay for internet.
That is HD antenna you moron. I have one already I bought it from amazon. com it works great. Outdoor HD antenna can receives digital signal from HD broadcasting towers up to 50 miles away. Go buy one retard !!
@bendix109 - That is HD antenna you moron. I have one already I bought it from amazon. com it works great. Outdoor HD antenna can receives digital signal from HD broadcasting towers up to 50 miles away. Go buy one retard !!"
There is no such thing as an HD antenna, RF is RF, any good antenna that worked for analog will most likely work for digital (which includes HD and SD) . The key is gain and directionality NOT if it is marked HD antenna on the box.
My Great Grandma (who is 87) just has a 18' LCD from Vizio with just a normal coaxial antennae and she gets more than these 20 channels for only the $350 for the TV and the $20 for the cable/antennae.
And those who say the video is fake, you are wrong. It is OTA (Over The Air) broadcast in a digital signal to the antennae. Plus most of you all say
you can try without... but my antenna is connected to 3 tv, so the signal may be not so strong. I made this antenna like people do in italy. Everyone have the antenna on the roon and they do use an amplifier.
Preamps are only needed if you are not getting the channels you expect to be getting or you are in a fringe area. If you over-amplify the signal you can actually lose strong stations due to signal overload.
Pre-amps can also be used to offset the noise in your TV's tuner. Without a pre-amp, the TV tuner sets the SNR, but if a pre-amp is used, and it has a lower noise figure than the TV tuner, the pre-amp sets the SNR. Given that most TV tuners have 5-8 db noise, and a good pre-amp has 2-3 db noise, using a pre-amp can boost the SNR by 2-6 db. The problem is that pre-amps are prone to overload from strong local signals, which can cause the TV tuner to lower SNR on all channels.
This video is just showing you how to receive the FREE over the air (OTA) channels that you are able to get in your area. Unfortunately, some people get very few local channels, or they get tired of/don't like the programing on their local channels. This is why most people will get cable/satellite/etc.
Nice you people in USA have channels fta in terrestial...here in Sweden they have encrypted almost all channels even in terrestial :-( I'm using a sattelite dish and watching other european channels that sends fta ;-)
This is not illegal. This is free over the air local broadcast channels that get sent out through the air. Alot of you people are dumber then a bag of nails.
@rep0eagle The antenna works, but if youre out far the best thing I found is VIEWSATNOW for free channels from any satellite in space... and its supposedly legal too, check it out
@rep0eagle is there someone that actually said that this was illegal ? Well, if they did, I would have been in trouble 35+ years ago......lol.... Had an old Channel Master dialing rotor and the fine tuning on the black & white tv that used vaccum tubes would be in question as well...lol... Eventually, the one that asked that question was not born before the 70s, 80s, or 90s...lol....
@rep0eagle i know right? like seriosly...if they brodcast channels why wouldnt they want everyone to watch them...besides if it WAS ilegal then it would be imposible for the police to know whos geting the channels...people out there can be such idiots......

yeah you either got HD ready TV or an HD TV with a converter box and either way its a government conspiracy to lessen the quality of our free television now i am using four times as much energy when im trying to be green yes that's TV digital converter box in line amplifier high gain indoor antenna and (next section)
That antenna is only good if you live in a UHF only market like South Bend Indiana. Markets like Chicago will still have 2 VHF stations after June 12, and that type of antenna won't get VHF stations. So for those who live in VHF/UHF markets have to look at antennas that get 2-69 (2-51 after June 12).
Your "friend" seems to have subscribed to "basic" satellite service and has a hacked digital card for his converter box which allows him to view all channels.

zulnoon78 i don't know the exact name i cant remember it it was called the g117 but it was g something anyways just go on google and type tool to open rogers cable box it almost looks like a screwdriver hope that helps you out i am gonna try to loook for the link so i can post here for you if you don't find it first
y go threw all that trubble with the antena jest get the black bird and a satalite dish and then ur set all the channels u get with satalite free even PPV
all that is a waste of time and too much work if you live in canada go on craigs list and look for a tool called a g117 i think and that will open the cable box so you can do it yourself i bought one and i now have free cable
yeah but this is ment for Free programing for people who use Antenia like I used to do, weel that is, until I got my jacked cable. I think its really cool that You can get any HDTV channels at all with an antennia! I think I'm going to try this.
My digital tv off air sucks I got my antenna outside on my house On ocasion i lose reception on 3 channels. Sad thang is I get more analog channels than digital.
seriously, and with all that money he spent (that he showed at the beginning of the vid) buying this crap he coulda bought not 1, but 2 ACTUAL HD antennas
may want to go back tp the splitter and attach a GROUN wire or should by 1 in a million chance lightning strike it your tv will get fried. The surge protector at the power source will only work from the wall power fyi. At the splitter run a wire to the cover of the light fixture short and swwet and easy.
I bought HDTV converter box, and the picture is superior to cable. I bought the RCA DTA800 which is sold just about everywhere and comes with "video out" jack - use that. It is amazing to watch HDTV in consistant clear TV.
DTV is much better than satellite & cable. The cable co. are going to go out of business with free HDTV.(maybe not!)
Nice Video! Try a HDTV Filter a.k.a TV DESCRAMBLER. Most are analog and are not capadable with digital. So make sure it is TRU SPEC. This thing filters radio frequency, also concetrates digital frequency. It helps a lot on the picture quality, & gave me 60+ channels in total [(a few channels are repeats)I got 25+ more channels]...
NOTE: Few people sell them on ebay, you should try it merkojax.

@bjornredtail Even with the best possible arresting setup, it is not possible to get 100% lightning protection, as a Ham I know this all to well, it is best to have a gas discharge aresstor grounded with thick solid single strand copper (not copper plated aluminum or steel) and have every leg of the tower, pole mast or post grounded to a 10ft or more copper plated rod, (no aluminum, soil can destroy aluminum quite quickly) it is just best to disconnect your coax and keep it away from conductors

If you have Comcast, Charter, or Cox Cable just order the internet and leave off the TV and Phone package. Hook the Coaxial to your Flatscreen and use the built in TV Tuner to scan for all the channels. You will get way more channels than you do over the air as the Over air trick doesn't work in all locations. I've tried it on the Coaxial and I get almost everything and other channels I had to upgrade to see. I only pay for internet.

There is no such thing as an HD antenna, RF is RF, any good antenna that worked for analog will most likely work for digital (which includes HD and SD) . The key is gain and directionality NOT if it is marked HD antenna on the box.

Why do you need all this?
My Great Grandma (who is 87) just has a 18' LCD from Vizio with just a normal coaxial antennae and she gets more than these 20 channels for only the $350 for the TV and the $20 for the cable/antennae.
And those who say the video is fake, you are wrong. It is OTA (Over The Air) broadcast in a digital signal to the antennae. Plus most of you all say
"IS FAKE"
At least say
"IT'S FAKE"
Great video though.

What if you dont use the amplifier, i thought boosters are used when long distances of RG6 are used.
juanacious 2 years ago
you can try without... but my antenna is connected to 3 tv, so the signal may be not so strong. I made this antenna like people do in italy. Everyone have the antenna on the roon and they do use an amplifier.

@mirkojax
Preamps are only needed if you are not getting the channels you expect to be getting or you are in a fringe area. If you over-amplify the signal you can actually lose strong stations due to signal overload.
monkeyman1140 1 year ago
@juanacious
Pre-amps can also be used to offset the noise in your TV's tuner. Without a pre-amp, the TV tuner sets the SNR, but if a pre-amp is used, and it has a lower noise figure than the TV tuner, the pre-amp sets the SNR. Given that most TV tuners have 5-8 db noise, and a good pre-amp has 2-3 db noise, using a pre-amp can boost the SNR by 2-6 db. The problem is that pre-amps are prone to overload from strong local signals, which can cause the TV tuner to lower SNR on all channels.

This video is just showing you how to receive the FREE over the air (OTA) channels that you are able to get in your area. Unfortunately, some people get very few local channels, or they get tired of/don't like the programing on their local channels. This is why most people will get cable/satellite/etc.

That antenna is only good if you live in a UHF only market like South Bend Indiana. Markets like Chicago will still have 2 VHF stations after June 12, and that type of antenna won't get VHF stations. So for those who live in VHF/UHF markets have to look at antennas that get 2-69 (2-51 after June 12).

Nice Video! Try a HDTV Filter a.k.a TV DESCRAMBLER. Most are analog and are not capadable with digital. So make sure it is TRU SPEC. This thing filters radio frequency, also concetrates digital frequency. It helps a lot on the picture quality, & gave me 60+ channels in total [(a few channels are repeats)I got 25+ more channels]...
NOTE: Few people sell them on ebay, you should try it merkojax.
