I found a good deal on a Samsung flatscreen today at Best Buy so I brought it home. Picture is great but it doesn't pick up a few of the lower channels, including PBS, which is a deal-breaker. We do not have cable and hooking the TV to our rooftop antenna doesn't help, so I thought maybe an amplified indoor antenna might do the trick. Anyone had any luck with these?
The antenna on your roof should be better. Do you know the type of antenna on the roof? Can you describe it? Has it picked up channels in the past? Did you select the correct tuner setting in the TV?
The rooftop antenna did a fairly good job supplying a signal tp my old converter box, but it doesn't help as much with flatscreen. Our rooftop antenna is a standard-looking one with all the rods pointing out in every direction (is that description technical enough?):dunno:
Yes, I selected the over the air option in the settings program.
