Grab some free HD with these antennas

RCA ANT1600

When people think of an antenna, they usually picture the old-fashioned “rabbit ears” that used to adorn the top of television sets.  However, the new antennas that are being released by Audiovox have a completely different look and capabilities.  These new antennas, released through the RCA and TERK divisions will have a flat appearance, measuring 10” square and less than 1” thick.  Getting an antenna is a great way to pick up HD television free. 

The new line of antennas will be a mix of both indoor and outdoor devices.  Models expected to be released this year, include the RCA ANT800, TERK FDTVO, RCA ANT1600 and TERK FDTV1A.  The new outdoor antennas, the RCA ANT800 and the TERK FDTVO will have a water-resistant and UV shell to ensure protection against the elements.  The 360 degree design will also ensure that you receive digital TV signals from all directions. 

The indoor antennas, including the RCA ANT1600 will also possess the omnidirectional feature in order to receive good reception on digital television channels.  An amplified version of this same antenna, the RCA ANH1650B will permit reception of both high definition and UHF/VHF signals.  Most of the models are expected to arrive in stores by the spring and will all retail for less than $100.
