The best TV antenna for Little Rock-Pine Bluff

Get an antenna rated for both VHF and UHF. For most homes an attic or outdoor antenna is the safe choice; by our estimate an indoor one is likely enough for only about 1% of people.

  • 11 channels reach ordinary TVs only on VHF (KETS, KEMV, KETG, KTHV), and many flat indoor antennas are weak on VHF.
  • The towers are spread out, so a wide-beam (multi-directional) antenna is safer than a narrow directional one.

Not sure about VHF Lower frequencies (RF 2–13). Needs an antenna with longer elements; many flat indoor antennas are weak here. More in the glossary and UHF Higher frequencies (RF 14–36). Most stations are here; almost any antenna picks it up. More in the glossary ? See the glossary. Any brand of the right type will do.
