To get HDTV for free you will require an outdoor or indoor HDTV antenna. By this you can watch free over-the-air broadcasts like Fox, NBC, ABC, CBS and more depending on your location.
But for the best HDTV experience you will require a good quality HDTV antenna. Choosing a right one can be a tough task if you are not familiar with HDTV technology.

There are lots of indoor and outdoor HD antennas available in the market.

An Indoor HDTV antenna is convenient to use and easier to install. Its beneficial for those who live in apartments or rental properties. But for a good reception with indoor antenna, you must be located nearer to the broadcasting tower for best HDTV results.

An outdoor hd antenna is better if the broadcasting tower is far away. It can be an omni/multi-directional antenna or a directional antenna. If you are in US, The consumer Electronics Association (CEA) has given a color coding scheme for the classification of regions depending on TV reception qualition. In the CEA’s antenna mapping program, there are 7 color regions. The color zone depends on the location of the broadcast tower and your location. HDTV outdoor antennas are cerified by CEA and a color diagram is given according to the above situation. So select the antenna resembling your color zone. Also, over 80% of HDTV broadcasts are in UHF band instead of VHF. So go for an UHF antenna as it is cheaper than the dual VHF/UHF antennas.

Happy Free HDTV Experience.
