OTA / "Rabbit Ears" Reception Question

[Scott Reppert]

If I were to go with an indoor VHF/UHF antenna, possibly like this one here, what would I expect to receive "off the air" sitting on the Monongah side of Fairmont?

Any ideas???

I have not tested that model but I do recommend this one: http://www.radioshack.com/product/index ... Id=2253765

I just zip tied it to my gutter and it works well for most stations. However, for just a little more, you can get one of these: http://www.radioshack.com/product/index ... Id=2062075

but you have to actually mount it on a mast.


Indoor antennas, as a rule of thumb, do not work well (and I tested quite a few). If you can, go with an outdoor antenna.

After about 3 minutes of that shit I gave up. I would much rather pay the ninety bucks.
