I cut the cable and would like to get the local channels back. Is there an antenna you would recommend?
Thanks. 1/30/2014 2:28:25 PM |

I couldn't find much on this as far as my issue, but I had bought a cheap RCA antenna and I was able to get ABC in downtown Raleigh (channel 11-1) but now with my antenna I am not able anymore to get ABC over the air? Wanting to know which brand of antenna I would need to secure that. 9/17/2014 11:55:03 AM |

^^ i've found that 11.1 is broadcasted from a different location and the only way for me to get it is by turning the antenna until it picks up (and losing some of the other channels). i dont think you can pick up all broadcast channels over the air at the same time with a static antenna

I use a Leaf Metro to get the basic broadcast networks. I live about 5 miles from all the broadcast antennas in my area, so I get them all in cable-quality HD. 9/18/2014 10:36:47 AM |

I use a Channel Master CM3018. They're about $100, and they're big. Mine is mounted in the rafters in the attic. It works very well, though. 9/18/2014 11:06:51 AM |

Is it true that if you have TWC internet, you can get the local channels in HD just by plugging to the wall? Do you need a set-top box for this or just antenna cable straight from TV to wall jack? 9/24/2014 3:15:25 PM |

by law, they must provide clear QAM local channels, as they are subsidized by tax dollars. 10/4/2014 9:47:24 AM |
