A:Answer There are a lot of things to consider. TV needs a coax connector, the antenna needs to be mounted high and face the direction that the local channels are broadcasting from, and there are no high obstruction, ie, tall condo building/homes, trees etc, in the line of sight of your signals. They may interfere with the signal. I installed a couple of cheap ones on my boat and got better reception from them since they did not have to pass through the house and they were facing the right direction. Hope this helps
