Default Broadcast Reception & TV Antennas

Hi All,

Does anyone out there have a recommendation on the best "rabbit ears" or other indoor antennas for the new digital broadcast? I am located in NE Arkansas.

Actually your best bet is a small outdoor UHF antenna since the DTV stations are up in the old UHF bands.

When I lived in NE Arkansas, rabbit ears only picked up a usually fuzzy channel 8 out of Jonesboro. That was with a fancy plug-in one. On a good day, I could get the local PBS station. Not sure about the new technology, but an outdoor antenna would be better all around.

Thank you both. What I've found in general is that digital broadcast seems to have a stronger signal. I'm really hoping that the right rabbit ears and digital convertor box can make an improvement. If anyone has had an improvement, what brand did you use for the convertor box and antenna? Thanks again for the responses so far.
