  Basically, yes. For more practical TV watching I can watch down in the
  basement area on a larger TV, but it doesn't have rear speakers so on some shows, say the X-files, I wouldn't mind watching in my room. My parents
  have a small 13" TV sitting in the kitchen and it gets decent reception with a plain old pole antenna that came with it. I guess most people get cable or so such that my 20" Sony didn't even come with an antenna!! Call me old-fashioned but I have no time for cable.

    I agree that cable is no great shakes. If I lived in an area with lots of stations I would not bother with cable. Where I grew up there are now nearly 20 stations that can be picked up by antenna.

      The only reason I went back to cable was Babylon 5. The first 4 years on WOR and then the the last year (chapter) on TNT. ... and now TNT is thinking about NOT picking up the sequel series? There outta be a law...

    www.terk.com

    They make good quality, indoor, amplified antennas. I have the "Q" for FM radio, works great.

      Do they make one for TV?
      You also amplify the noise.

        Yeah, Terk makes TV antennas. I plugged in my specs per their antenna finder and it returned the TV-25, any experience anybody? Seems like a very
        basic variation rabbit ear that I'm sure has some kind of fancy name to it.
