TV Antennas

Plenty of free TV programming and no cable bills!

There’s more programming choices available over-the-air than ever. Between all the broadcasters serving the Green Bay and Appleton Wisconsin market, there are as many as 40 free TV channels* to enjoy.

Are you ready to “cut the cord?”

Before there were cable and satellite, there was broadcast TV. You may remember getting a tiny handful of channels on an old pair of “rabbit ears” back in the 80’s. Well the humble antenna is back in a big way, and it’s better than ever. If fact, many now prefer free TV to their old subscription TV service!

Since the digital television transition in 2009, an increasing number of households are having TV antennas installed. It’s one of the fastest-growing sources of TV programming in homes all across Northeast Wisconsin! It’s no wonder – the number of broadcast channels available with an antenna has exploded in the past few years, making over-the-air programming a great combination of choice and cost-savings.

Besides all the great local networks you already know like ABC and FOX, there are new digital “subchannels” with programming for virtually all tastes. Cooking and lifestyle shows, classic sitcoms, mysteries, westerns, uplifting religious programming, and feature films are all available to you free of charge when you install an antenna. There’s even a locally-focused 24-hour weather channel!

Antenna reception can be tricky

But over-the-air reception is not without its headaches. Depending on where you live, it can be difficult to get the channels you really want. This is especially true since broadcasting turned digital, because good signal reception can mean the difference between seeing that fourth-quarter touchdown catch or seeing nothing at all. The choices of antennas have never been more plentiful, but many of these models are not of good quality.

The optimal combination of the right antenna and the right placement for your location is a science, and it can be as unique as a fingerprint. Many factors impact your reception – the distance from the broadcast towers, the topography of your area, the design of the antenna, where it is installed and so on. All these factors matter, so getting great signal strength for all of Green Bay’s broadcast channels is rarely a do-it-yourself kind of job.
