Cord-cutting has given Internet streaming a boost and given new life to receiving TV signals using an antenna. Instead of paying high cable or satellite bills, you can receive TV over the air for free. However, there is more to receiving TV signals than buying an antenna and randomly placing it somewhere indoors or outdoors.
Ways to Improve Your Indoor TV Antenna Reception

You may be too far from one or more TV station transmitters to receive a signal. If you are too far away, you will experience the digital cliff, an abrupt drop in TV signal. This is a byproduct of the transition from analog to digital TV broadcasting.
Analog TV signals had a gradual fading pattern as the distance between the TV transmitter and the receiving antenna increased. Even though you could be too far away to receive the best quality, you could still watch a low-quality signal with a fuzzy picture if it didn’t bother you.
