I'm trying to get a channel below 13. The bunny ears on my $10 job are 3' long. The bunny ears on the more expensive antennas are 8-10".
even though the TV station is assigned to channel between 2-13 it likely is not transmitting on a VHF frequency. many , maybe even most, TV stations that had analog frequency assignments between channels 2-13 (VHF) moved to UHF frequencies after the switch to digital. the FCC allowed them to keep the previous channel identities to not further confuse the viewers. look for an indoor antenna that has amplification...those will have a 120-VAC cord in addition to the coax connection. and make sure that the antenna has both VHF and UHF receive capabilities.
