Antenna explanation
Since the subject of HD antennas comes up here occasionally, I just couldn't resist posting this link: http://money.cnn.com/gallery/technology/innovation/2013/08/07/worst-tech-lies/5.html
Forum Discussion
I guess I'm in kindergarten then, because I had been wondering why the often discussed Jack antenna, for example, labels itself as an HDTV Antenna and if I can use it with my old analog TV. On my old motorhome I did get a Jack installed so I found out that the answer is yes.
Thank you for posting that link, HappyKayakers.
MNtundraRet, since you seem to know lots about electronics, maybe you can answer a question for me. I haven't bought a new TV (LED/LCD HD) for either my motorhome or house because I don't spend enough time at home to buy HD channels from my Cable company, and RV parks with Cable generally do not offer HD channels. When I see HD TVs at my friends' houses, the regular old channels (non-HD) look worse on their TVs than on my old analog TV. Why?
Because of this, I hesitate to buy a new TV.
(Sorry to take this thread on a tangent, but it seemed a good opportunity for my inquiry.)
