Digital Antennas

For those who are under the dictatorship and abusive prices of cable companies are an option.
  Digital Antennas.
  Many people only require the services of cable companies to watch TV and have to pay high prices every month for local channels that are available for free.
  A very simple solution is to install a digital antenna and in the TV menu to choose the antenna option instead of cable, then do a scan and you can have a list which can vary depending on where you are and the amount of channels available in the area. In my case I got 32 channels.
   There are many models of antennas from the interior that can be put next to the TV and external that can be installed on a balcony or roof. In my case I installed a external antenna but for convenience and as seen in the photo was placed in the attic.
  The antenna that uses' has a control and an actuator to rotate and orient it for best reception in areas where all channels coming from different directions, in my case gave me more results try various positions until I found one that's received heavenly more channels.
  Here is the link to the Amazon site where I bought this digital antenna but can be purchased at any local store electronic product.  www.amazon.com


Antenas Digitales

Para aquellos que estan bajo la dictadura el monopolio y los abusivos precios de las compañias de cable hay una opcion.
 Las antenas digitales.
 Muchas personas solo requieren los servicios de las compañias de cable para ver television y tienen que pagar altos precios cada mes para ver canales locales que estan disponibles de forma gratuita.
 Una solucion muy sencillla consiste en instalar una antenna digital y en el menú del televisor escoger la opción de antenna en vez de cable, luego hacer un scan y listo ya podemos disponer de una lista que puede variar depende de el lugar donde nos encontremos y la cantidad de canales disponibles en el area de forma digital. En mi caso en las pruebas que hize fue de 32 canales.
  Hay muchos modelos de antenas, estan desde las interiores que se pueden poner al lado del televisor y las exteriores que se pueden instalar en un balcón o en el techo. En mi caso yo instalé una antenna exterior pero por comodidad y como se aprecia en la foto la instale dentro del atico.
  La antenna que utilize’ dispone de un control y un motor para rotarla y orientarla para mejor recepcion en areas donde todos los canales no procedan de la misma direccion, en mi caso me dio mas resultado intentar varias posiciones hasta que di con una en la que reciví la mayor cantidad de canales.
 Aqui les dejo el link a la página de Amazon donde compré esta antena aunque en cualquier tienda local de productos electronicos se pueden conseguir. www.amazon.com
