The best TV antenna for Orlando-Daytona Beach-Melbourne
Get an antenna rated for both VHF and UHF. Across most of the area an indoor antenna is likely enough (about 88% of people, by our estimate); farther out, use an attic or roof antenna.
- 15 channels reach ordinary TVs only on VHF (WACX), 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.
