Asked 1 year ago by Anonymous.

• A:Answer You will need a large outdoor antenna to get anywhere close to a 300 mile range. But ESPN cannot be received over any antenna. ESPN is not an over-the-air (OTA) broadcast channel. It is only available via cable or streaming over the internet.

Q: QuestionWhat is the size (diameter) of this coaxial cable. I need to buy coaxial to usb cable for my TV.

Asked 4 months ago by Keesy.

• A:Answer Thank you for your inquiry! The Insignia™ Amplified Ultra-Thin Indoor HDTV Antenna comes with a built-in ultra-flexible 10-foot coaxial cable, which is a standard RG-6 type coaxial cable. The diameter of an RG-6 cable is typically about 6.86 mm (0.27 inches). If you're looking to connect this antenna to a USB port on your TV (which is uncommon for signal input), you would need a coaxial-to-USB TV tuner adapter, not just a cable. These adapters convert the antenna signal into a format that can be processed by a device with USB input, usually for use with a computer or media box—not directly with most TVs.

Asked 2 months ago by Anonymous.

• A:Answer If the signal is strong enough coming into the antenna, you can split the coax cable to multiple TV's. But most likely would need 2 antennas for this small of a range.
