[Shop-talk] HDTV antenna

[Brad Kahler]

There is only one or two channels that we get any decent reception on right
now with rabbit ears.B  Thats one reason I was thinking of an antenna in the
attic (although I don't really care to run the wire down to the living room).
IB had been wondering ifB hd "specific" antennas were sales gimmic, sounds
like it.
Thanks,
Brad

Subject: Re: [Shop-talk] HDTV antennaIf you get good signal now with the
rabbit ears, stay with them, if not,
put the antenna in the attic. My understanding is that the antennas that
have been used for normal reception will work just fine for HD. Most of
the "HD antennas" are just advertising hype to make you buy a new one.

Pat
