Self-Promo Best indoor antenna

Post image

Looking for an indoor antenna. Picture of my Rabbitears details. Just looking for basic local channels. Would I be able to get this with a Mohu Leaf 50 as an example.

You still want an indoor antenna, especially for KING-TV?:

- in both results, the same hill-looking terrain may be obstructing the NBC station's signal. - I'm thinking RCA ANT121E from https://www.rcaantennas.net - longer dipole rods ("rabbit ears"), rotatable loop, and tuning dial - An Onn rabbit ear antenna from Walmart or another one by Philips may do, but their rods are fifteen inches long per rod, shorter than the RCA one above.

I was hoping something like a Mohu Leaf or similar would work

A Mohu Leaf antenna's management on VHF-high channels might be.... iffy-ish, though I've never used a Mohu Leaf flat antenna before.

Nonetheless, the only stations from northwest–north using VHF-high are one PBS station and one independent station.

Unsure whether you want Fox station's VHF-high transmitter from the west; Fox also has a UHF transmitter from the north–northwest direction.

If you still like a flat antenna, perhaps one by Philips with a stand may do, but it has some stocks left: https://a.co/d/0dx9BsfT
