37. What indoor antenna should I use? ... Apr 13, 2026

Antenna TV is all about the antenna. You can try cheap antennas but you get what you pay for. Consider a professionally installed outdoor antenna. A professional install runs around $400. That's around 5 months of subscription for YouTube TV.

Antenna choice also depends on your exact location. If you want to install the antenna yourself, consult one of the antenna recommendation services at this link. Use the discount code "zapperbox" to get a discount from Tyler.

We sell the A1 antenna by Televes which we believe to be the most versatile antenna becasue it passes the spouse test, can be placed on a flat surface, mounted indoor, ordoor or in an attic. It can also be pole mounted for wall mounted. It has built in LTE filter and pre-amplifier. It does not work with low-VHF RF bands from RF 2 to RF 6. Otherwise it has one of the highest gains for comparable antennas. Antennas can be compared objectively using their gain but not their "miles of range" rating. The A1 antenna is rated at 32dBi for UHF bands and 23dBi for high-VHF bands. See this link.
