It should work for old type analog TV's since the info says VHF channels 2-13 and UHF channels 14-69.That's what all TV's were designed for as long as you used the tuner built in to the TV.The info is listed as:*Amplified indoor HDTV antenna engineered to receive VHF channels 2-13 and UHF channels 14-69*Optimized to receive all HDTV channels for free local high-definition entertainment with a compatible TV or TV/receiver*Boost weak signals-dual-drive amplifier ensures clear reception of both distant and close HDTV and DTV stations*High-gain antenna array can be oriented horizontally or vertically for optimum reception*Appealing design with small footprint; easy to install-supplied cable carries video and power It should work for old type analog TV's since the info says VHF channels 2-13 and UHF channels 14-69.That's what all TV's were designed for as long as you used the tuner built in to the TV.The info is listed as:*Amplified indoor HDTV antenna engineered to receive VHF channels 2-13 and UHF channels 14-69*Optimized to receive all HDTV channels for free local high-definition entertainment with a compatible TV or TV/receiver*Boost weak signals-dual-drive amplifier ensures clear reception of both distant and close HDTV and DTV stations*High-gain antenna array... » Read More It should work for old type analog TV's since the info says VHF channels 2-13 and UHF channels 14-69.That's what all TV's were designed for as long as you used the tuner built in to the TV.The info is listed as:*Amplified indoor HDTV antenna engineered to receive VHF channels 2-13 and UHF channels 14-69*Optimized to receive all HDTV channels for free local high-definition entertainment with a compatible TV or TV/receiver*Boost weak signals-dual-drive amplifier ensures clear reception of both distant and close HDTV and DTV stations*High-gain antenna array can be oriented horizontally or vertically for optimum reception*Appealing design with small footprint; easy to install-supplied cable carries video and power « Show Less

Yes, but old TVs require a converter box. This is true no matter what antenna you buy, because the TV channels no longer broadcast in analog. ALL old TVs (and ALL old antennas, for that matter) can still be used, but you need a converter box to use old TVs.

Probably, but you would have to have it connected to a converter box as the signals are now digital - not analog anymore. Any antenna will pick the signals (analog or digital) but the old sets need the converter box.

Don't quote me, but I think it's for digital only. Otherwise, I'm not sure.

You will need a "digital" TV or a digital converter for your old TV before this antenna will work.

Im not a subject matter expert but I would say yes, it will work with your analog/digital converter box. Here lies the potential why:http://www.ebay.com/gds/NO-SUCH-THING-AS-A-HDTV-ANTENNA/10000000003429040/g.html

You can use an antenna but this is not for digital over-the-air tv. This product is obselete in the USA.

All you need is your TV and the HD Antenna. If your TV is ancient, it might not work. But any modern TV should work with this antenna. Go to www.antennaweb.org to find out which stations you will be able to access from your location.

No - it's just an antenna with a signal amplifier. You'll still have to buy/obtain a separate unit for converting the new digital signals to analog.

If your TV has a built-in tuner to receive digital broadcasts, the antenna should work. If your TV does not have a digital tuner, you will almost definitely get nothing. Digital capability is also know as ATSC. Old analog-only "cable ready" sets did not have ATSC tuners. In the U.S., there are some cities that have a few low-power analog channels still being broadcast, but that is rare and all the major channels are only broadcast digitally now.

Yes you will need a digital converter box & you won't get as many channels with this antenna as you do with Comcast. It's really not worth the money.

If you have a digital receiver, it will work, regardless as to whether it is an HD set. If you have an analog set, you will need a digital converter to run the antenna through.

technically anything metal can be hooked to an old TV to be used as an antenna. I mean people used to use coat hangers. the problem is nobody broadcast in analog anymore. yes this is just really an antenna but it is meant to hook into a digital receiver since that is all TV stations broadcast.

I don't see why not. You have to use an antenna with a converter box anyhow. This one works the way any other antenna I have had. I have a digital tv and an analog and used this antenna on the digital tv only. Try it out, can't hurt anything.

If your old TVs do not have built in digital ATSC tuners, then you will still need the converter with this antenna. The antenna is only to receive the signal and it does a great job especially with the amplifier. Any TV made after March 2008 should have a digital ATSC tuner as required by law. Any 2008 or newer VCR, DVD or DVR can also be used as the digital tuner by running the cable from the antenna to such as device and then out to the TV.

Any antenna will do. I get this question a lot. An antenna does not care if the signal is digital or analog, UHF/VHF broadcast is still the same frequency. Some of the new antennas pick up the signal a little better, but even the old "Rabbit Ear" antenna will work.

Hey - not sure what an 'old SD' style TV is but I'm using the converter box on an old Projection TV and it works good. The antenna is kind of flimsy so I got a sturdier one to use with the converter.

If your tv is digital,you do not need a digital to analog converter box. An analog tv requires that converter box to work with any antenna.

No, if your tv is analogic, you will have to connect the antenna to the converter

The broadcast signals are digital so you will need a converter box (digital to analog) no matter the antenna you use. Antenna&gt;Converter Box &gt; TV
