Good OTA HDTV antenna.

[Sarang01]

I'm looking for a OTA HDTV antenna that will pull the signal in fairly strong, any suggestions? Don't worry about mentioning a tuner either since my TV already has it built in.

Are you looking for an indoor antenna or an outdoor antenna? If you are looking for an indoor antenna, the two best are the Zenith Silver Sensor and the Radio Shack 1880.

First, check www.antennaweb.org and see what channels are near you.

If you are looking for an outdoor antenna, go to the AVS forums and see what others have used.

Go to the "Local HDTV Info and Reception" and "HDTV Hardware" boards.

Either. An indoor one would be preferable but I want one that really captures the signal too.

If you live in a fairly urban area, the Silver Sensor is great - the FCC supposedly uses it as the reference antenna for checking HDTV signals. I get signal strengths in the 80s on all of the available channels in my area (Austin, TX), using it indoors.

I just wish the FOX station showed up here. I checked that link and NOWHERE is the FOX DT bit mentioned but for some reason when I enter my zip code under "www.checkhd.com/" it comes up.
I REALLY wanna see "Reunion" and "House" in HD not to mention "24".
