HD Antennas, allow you to receive signals that are transmitting HD video. Having a TV that does not provide HD capabilities should not impact your ability to us an HD antenna. It only means you will not be capitalizing on the clarity provided by modern HD TVs.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.On the box, note the name "HDTV". This means the antenna receives HDTV signals. Also, remember, TV is only broadcast in HD now---a change that occurred several years ago.
Sorry, there was a problem.

I get all my local channels that are transmitted over the air and more. For free. And pay for the best internet package that they can offer. So I can enjoy and pay for just what I want the watch. Your tv has to have a digital tuner in it or you may need a tuner sold separately. Well worth the investment once you see how much you save on not having to pay for cable you don’t even use most of the time.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.What do you mean by “normal?” If it’s a big, bulky, and older TV (15 yrs. or more) you can get away by using the old rabbit ear antennas. You can find those still around and sometimes they can be spotted at a local dollar store. Reason being, they don’t have a display capable enough to show HD shows and movies in HD. You might be able to watch them, but they will look Like any other show on the same unit. Keep in mind that even if an antenna advertises “best reception,” it doesn’t factor your exact location (buildings, mountains, distance from TV towers, etc.). Sometimes more expensive isn’t always best.
