I have my converter sitting next to the TV as I type this. It's not plugged in or connect to the tv but I need to know if I have to buy a antenna too before I connect everything. Right now my tv has a antenna that came with the TV when I bought it oh like 10-12 years ago so I cant remove it unless you think I can? I hope this is easier than it looks.

Slightly confused.

yes you will need an antenna. Most of digital is on the UHF band with a select few staying on VHF.

Depending on how far you are from transmitters, will depend on what antenna you need. For close range a pair of rabbit ears with a UHF loop will do fine. For farther distances you'll probably need an outdoor antenna.

Go on TVfool enter your address and post your plot here.

That was great information! At first, I didn't think I was going to be able to figure out the results, but I just needed to scroll down to the end of the page and see the code. It's really helped me to get a handle on it. In truth, it's like the days before cable. We still have the roof-top antennae, so the channels are pretty much what we got before and then some. Thanks for sharing the link.
