OTA antenna d** supplies

Does anyone know the specs for the ota antenna? Does it have a pre amp can I add one? And is it worth it? Thanks.:devil:

I have to pay for it. I found a VU-90 XR at radio shack for $10. more would that be a better antenna.

Try this http://www.hdtvprimer.com/ANTENNAS/comparing.html and be sure to surf that web site for additional info. Also try http://www.antennaweb.org/aw/welcome.aspx for signals available in your neighborhood.

When we got VOOM in March 2005, VOOM installed the ratshack vu-90, it picked up SOME of the stations available to us, I was extremely disappointed in it's inability to pick up all of the local Cleveland stations.
BTW: it is still on the roof disconnected, after VOOM went dark, I may replace it with a top quality Winegard or Channel Master this spring for FM reception and other TV's in the house, (our Sony 34"XBR has the built - in HDTV tuner and Comcast HDTV service.)
