lew Posted May 23, 2012 Report Share Posted May 23, 2012 We rent cabins for a few weeks up north every year and usually take a small TV with us for rainy evenings. We have always taken a portable "rabbit ears" type of antenna that just clips onto the back of the TV but seeing as that type of signal is no longer available I was wondering if there's any type of portable antenna that is now available to pick up the digital signal ??

Billy Bob Posted May 23, 2012 Report Share Posted May 23, 2012 The digital signal you speak of is UHF frequency and is weak......but those rabbit ears will pick it up if your close enough. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lew Posted May 23, 2012 Author Report Share Posted May 23, 2012 Thanks Billy, I've been trying to get into Google this morning but couldn't get it to open. It's good now and I found what I needed to know. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lew Posted May 23, 2012 Author Report Share Posted May 23, 2012 We just use a small flatscreen Skip and even with the old rabbit ears we could pick up a couple channels but as I said, it's only for the odd time when the weather gets miserable outside.
