[Electronics-Talk] Question Regarding TV HD Antennas

[Humberto Avila]

Dear Everyone,


I hope you are having a happy new and prosperous new year 2024 and that 
your goals are off to a great start!


I am hoping someone can help me out with this inquiry.

I've been contemplating watching my local TV channels like ABC, NBC and 
others, much like I'd watch with a cable subscription. Now, I can't 
really afford such a subscription, let alone with the scrutinisingly 
rising costs of big streaming services / packages these days. So, I've 
done some online research lately, and am trying the possibility of 
watching this stuff free of charge with a 1-off purchase of a digital HD 
antenna. My questions are:

 1. How do you install such an antenna as a blind person? I have read
    many interesting articles describing the ease of use that now these
    devices are capable of having.
 2. Do I need a coaxial cable to install my antenna? I once again, read
    that you need to install the antenna using a coax cable included
    with most antenna packages / kits these days with the purchase. Now
    I only have one coaxial wall port, and that's what I use for hooking
    up my Internet, so nope, am not giving that up! ☺
 3. What kind of HD antennas are available? And which ones are accessible?
 4. does my antenna need to use Bluetooth or WI-Fi to be used effectively?
 5. lastly, but not leastly, what are any names, models, brands, or
    experiences with antennas you have used? Any recommendations,
    suggestions, and such are very welcome!


Sincerely,


Humberto
