I have a set of rabbit ears that was given to me several years ago for the
TV in the bedroom. The antenna cost about $15 in the 2002 catalog (Radio
Shack quit publishing a catalog soon thereafter).

I use a digital converter made under the RCA name and after the scan
virtually all of the pictures came out far better than the old analog
reception. However, almost all say "cannot get good reception rescan". The
sound tiles in and out. The bedroom is on the second floor. I looked at
amplified indoor antennas at Target and they sell for $20 to $50. The
non-amplified is $18 (only one they have).

Do most go to an amplified antenna or use an outside antenna? I just took
down my old big outside antenna 3 years ago as we have Comcast cable in 3
rooms. Comcast cost $$$ for each set up and add more wires to the house. I
also assume the signal gets weaker the more I add.
