Question posted by mkaczur on November 13th, 2011

Antenna

For best results when using an indoor antenna on the Samsung ln32d450 should one use an antenna specific for HDTV or would an UHF VHF with the setting on UHF do the same job? Right now I am using the Radio Shack Color Supreme 100 with good results again do I need an Antenna made for HDTV? Thanks

I found out that all antennas pick up the HD signal more on UHF and that saying it is a HDTV antenna is just a way for the sales man to sell you something you do not need rabbit ears will do the same if you are close enough to pick up the signal. I am using an old Radio Shack antenna the Color Supreme 100 that picks up nearly 100% of the Air channels in great quality.
