Ok just got my HDTV and I live 10 miles from downtown toronto and

50 miles in line of sight away from buffalo , also half of that distance

from buffalo is through lake Ontario , so not much obstructions. I am

2 stories high with 2 walls in my way, I can get all the Toronto channels

and I can get some digital channels from Buffalo in perfect HD ,

but not all , I was wondering what is the best indoor HD antenna

You used , because I want all the Buffalo channels too, one thing

to mention almost all the anolog channels look like c**p on my HDTV.

Is there an indoor antenna that could possibly pick up very good digital

channels from over 50 or 60 miles away?

  1. I think you need what's called a directional antenna for over 30 miles and I don't know if they come in an indoor variety, but I wouldn't think so.  Look around at electronics stores.


  2. Look for the Phillips Silver Sensor - classic.  It has a great reputation for an indoor antenna.  Runs about $21 on -line or $29 retail.

    I have loaned it to 6 people at work to try out when they get a new HDTV and 5 have gone out and bought their own after trying mine out.

    Type your address into www.antennaweb.org to see where the towers are from your home. Then use a coax cable to the antenna to try and give the antenna line-of-sight to the towers. Then have the TV scan for channels.
