Help in choosing and HD antenna?

Question

I would like your opinion in buying an HD antenna? I'm stuck in between two. One has an 18db gain and one has a 50db gain. Funny thing about it is, one is indoor and one is outdoor. The 18db is outdoor and the 50db is indoor. The 18db is more expensive than the 50db. Do ya think putting it outside helps in comparison to the indoor one?

Answer 1

the outdoor version will work better. the "gain" of the indoor version is just an amplifier which will add more noise to the signal rather than improve it.  if you already have an antenna it does not need to be replaced for HD service unless it does not have UHF pickup.
