RECEIVING ATSC CHANNELS
You can connect to an outdoor antenna to receive the free ATSC digital channels.
The size of the antenna you will need will depend on how far away the television station broadcast
antennas are from you. The further the distance the larger the antenna you need. If your unsure of how
far you are you can go to http://www.antennaweb.org and put in your zip code to search their database
for your distance and the direction of the broadcast antennas. If you’re fairly close you may be able to
get away with just a small antenna that will sit on top of your TV set. If you need a larger antenna you
can either put one in the attic or outside on an antenna mast.
