Okay, so I recently jumped on the HDTV bandwagon. The bummer is that my local provider (Comcast) only offers me 4 channels in HD. They do NOT offer Fox in HD so the baseball game last night blew. I was trying to think of solutions, and I remembered that some HD programming is broadcast free, over the air if you have the right equipment to pick it up. My questions are as follows.
Are these all I would need?: http://www.bestbuy.com/site/olspage.jsp?id=cat08084&type=category
Do they really work? ie. is the picture/signal quality high?
Is a lot of stuff really broadcast this way? Or am I going to spend money on this stuff to only get like 2 shows with it?
Any help would be greatly appreciated. I need more HD channels. This 4 channel bullshit is killing me. Comcast blows goats.
