I have an older antenna used to pick up analog OTA broadcasts. Will it work for picking up the locals in HD, or do I need an "HD" antenna

Digital OTA broadcasts are sent using VHF and UHF just like analog broadcasts, there is no such thing as an HD antenna, it's just marketing BS.


If you already have a combo VHF/UHF antenna and you get good analog reception, you'll probably be fine with what you have.

Read this sticky OTA FAQ thread in this forum: http://www.avsforum.com/avs-vb/showthread.php?t=611957 . Confirm that your current antenna has a UHF antenna and give it a try for digital TV reception first. It may work just fine.
