In Reply to: What Antenna / Reciever to get for HDTV reception?? posted by Wega Owner on January 12, 2002 at 21:30:10:
I'm in the southern part of southern California about 40-50 miles from the transmitters and just use a $30 UHF bowtie in my attic and get excellent reception.HDTV is all or nothing you know. Either there is a picture or a black screen, nothing in between.
You also need a set top box to decode the HDTV. Most prices have dropped dramatically and can be had for $500 or so. Most have DirecTV built in as well just so you know.
