There are several things you will need to consider in deciding which antenna would best suit your needs if you are not connecting the LG HD 720p Smart LED TV - 24" Class (23.6" Diag), Model # 24LJ4840-WU to cable. You'll need to find out what over-the-air channels are available in your area, determine whether you need a directional or omnidirectional antenna, choose between an indoor or outdoor antenna, decide if you need an amplifier for your antenna and if you live in a remote rural area, you’ll need a long-range antenna. Other things you'll need to consider are if there are any tall objects (e.g. high rise buildings, lots of trees, etc.) in your area that will obstruct the line of sight of your antenna? Does your residence have any restrictions on mounting an antenna outdoors? Could an indoor antenna be mounted on an exterior facing wall in your home? If most of your channels seem to be coming from one direction, then a directional antenna oriented toward the direction of the broadcast transmissions is best. In general, a directional antenna can be stronger and pull signals in from further out, but they can also be tricky to place correctly. If you live in an area that is close to the transmitter towers (approximately 30 miles), then an indoor antenna will do the job and may be the best TV antenna for your needs. Keep in mind that indoor TV antenna reception can vary significantly depending on where you decide to place it. If you’re finding that you’re having trouble picking up the channels you should be getting, try getting the antenna to an elevated position and towards a window or outward facing wall. It may take a little experimenting to get the best indoor TV antenna reception. If you live further away from broadcast towers and the indoor antennas aren’t cutting it, you probably need to consider a good outdoor TV antenna, and if you live far away from your local transmitter towers, or if you’re just having difficulty receiving channels, an amplifier might do the trick. Amplifiers amplify the signal that the antenna receives, essentially boosting a weak signal into something that you can watch, but they don’t do anything for the signal fidelity, so if the signal is spotty to begin with, an amplifier won’t prevent dropouts. If you’re really far away from transmitter towers (50+ miles), you’re going to have to invest in an antenna that is mounted on your roof...^IFV
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.There are many HD TV indoor antennas available depending on your distance from the broadcasting towers. I have a 30 mile range antenna and get all the major network channels and an additional 19 channels crisp and clear.
I would recommend:
