OTA antenna

[wdr61]

Greetings,
Newbie here from Bristol CT. 06010 want to know the best roof top antenna for my area. Also I have older tvs but own several Dish 301 receivers and am hoping that the OTA antenna with the 301 will get me OTA Digital. Please give me your input and suggestions. Thank you,
Bill

Dish 301 receivers do not receive ATSC OTA digital signals, only NTSC analog.

You need to buy an ATSC (digital) set top box (tuner) or upgrade your Dish Receiver to a ViP211 or a ViP622 DVR.

You are less than 10 miles from the Hartford broadcast towers, so an indoor antenna might well fix you up.

Be aware that you have at least 2 VHF digital channels (10 and 12) so you need an antenna capable of both UHF anf VHF reception.

The 301 has NO tuner for off air
