I think it works better, I have it installed on the outside of my house. It brings in about 60 channels.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.This antenna works far better than old rabbit ears especially if you mount the antenna in attic or on the roof. This antenna is built primarily for UHF rather than VHF reception. BTW: UHF is where virtually all of the air broadcast stations now operate. If "old big 90's TV set" is an analog rather than a digital set, you will also need a digital-to-analog converter box to get it to work at all. Even then it will very likely not be able to provide the same picture quality as digital High Definition (HD) sets. I hope this helps. John W
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.I pulled my old Directv dish off the corner of my rook and mounted it outside using the hardware that Directv left; ie. the pole, the u-bracket, etc. I had to replace the 2-way splitter as the one Directv had installed was specific to satellite equipment. They sell them at Walmart for like $6. Use the existing coaxial cable to run your line. THEN, download the AP from antenna point to scan your local area for the best direction to point your antenna. We live in a pretty rural area and get around 30-35 channels using this antenna. We couldn't be happier with the purchase. Saving $100's of dollars annually using this antenna and streaming the stuff we want to watch. I'm not very tech savvy , and I hooked this antenna up to both TV's within 30 minutes or less. You COULD use it like rabbit ears I suppose, but you wont get near as many channels if you don't mount the antenna in your attic/or on roof. Good luck!
