TV Antenna Comparison Guide
Why are there so many different types of TV antennas?
Indoor 30-mile
30 mile radius
30 mile radius
These indoor antennas are smaller, cheaper and typically not amplified. They however do not work very well when channels are being broadcast further than 30+ miles away from your home.
Compare 30 mile Antennas
Indoor Amp'd 50-mile
50 mile radius
50 mile radius
These indoor antennas very similar to the 30 mile ones, but are usually amplified (boosted) with power. They work best when trying to capture channels that are being broadcast within 50 miles of your home.
Compare 50 mile Antennas
Outdoor
30-70 mile radius
30-70 mile radius
These outdoor antennas are typically mounted on a roof or inside an attic. These powerful antennas work best if when you need one antenna to power your whole home.
Compare Long Range Antennas
Long Range
30-80 mile radius
30-80 mile radius
These outdoor antennas are typically mounted very high on a roof or on a pole. These powerful antennas work best if when you need one long range antenna to power your whole home.
