Hello,

I live in a 1-story house and have tried all the indoor antennas from Walmart (bunny-ear antenna, some flat rectangle shaped antennas) but none of them are able to pick up NBC network (channel 11). I was unable to watch the Olympics :confused:

I would like to be able to watch NBC, ABC, CW, Ind (KTSF 26.1), PBS. I was thinking about buying http://www.amazon.com/RCA-ANT751R-Outdoor-Optimized-Reception/dp/B0024R4B5C or http://www.amazon.com/AntennaCraft-22-Element-HDTV-VHF-Antenna/dp/B0035A6AUG/ref=cm_cr_pr_product_top

Also, this is my TV http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16889234047

Any suggestions or advice would be great. Thank you for your help :)

Above the roof install the ANT751 antenna (no antenna amplifier required) aimed at about 315 degree magnetic compass direction.

Here is how to aim antennas , http://www.kyes.com/antenna/pointing/pointing.html.

The Tv/s Must Channel Scan for the digital Broadcast Tv Channels sometimes named the 'Air Channels' or 'Antenna channels" in the Tv setup menu because the Tv transmissions travel through the air from the transmitting antenna to the receiving antenna.


DO NOT channel scan for cable tv channels.
