Netflix isn't going to carry your local news or sports but, fortunately, your local stations are still providing them for free, in the air all around you!
. As many cord-cutters have been pleasantly surprised to learn, digital signals broadcast over the air are often less compressed than the versions sent over landline by cable services. Major networks broadcast over the air in Full HD, or 1080p, and many users claim their broadcast channels come in with brighter, crisper images and sound.
Why is this happening? Both cable and OTA transmissions will degrade over long distances, and cable signals often have to cover a much longer distance than your local station’s broadcast. Cable offers more channels, of course, but broadcast still has some utility.There are major two specs you want to consider when looking at TV antennas: range and gain. An antenna’s maximum indicates how far away it can be from a station to pick up a broadcast signal.
Gain, expressed in decibels , measures how well a given antenna performs against a standard reference in picking up signals in a particular direction. As you would expect, a higher listed gain number means better performance, particularly with signals coming from the edges of your antenna’s range., UHF and VHF are terms you’re going to see while antenna shopping. They refer to the bands of frequency on which particular channels are broadcast.
This distinction mostly matters for outdoor antenna users, since most indoor antennas are UHF or combined, but even nominally UHF-only will usually pick up VHF stations regardless. The online tools for finding your local broadcasters mentioned above will include this information about each station. Many antennas are advertised explicitly for both. In general, this is only something you need to worry about if a critical mass of broadcasts you care about are VHF, especially Lo-V.
