15 Best Indoor Antennas

The Perfeo Forward indoor TV antenna model has the most stylish design and, according to the owners, guarantees stable signal pickup in the UHF band. The device is equipped with an improved amplifier, which gives a picture without loss of quality and at the same time demonstrates quiet operation. A distinctive feature of this antenna is the ability to receive power directly from a receiver or TV equipped with a digital DVB-T2 receiver. Thanks to this, there is no need to occupy a free outlet.

In addition to digital broadcasting, the device also receives analog signals and can be used in remote areas, such as a summer house. In most reviews, the owners note the best functionality of this model and the convenience of its placement in a variety of conditions. The antenna's wide base ensures optimum stability on any horizontal surface.

An excellent antenna that does not draw too much attention to itself. Instead of a "horned" design, a device with a mundane appearance awaits you. Of course, the accessory contains metal parts, but they are all hidden under a plastic case. Usually, buyers put such an antenna somewhere on a cabinet or on a windowsill, after which they forget about it. The only problem might be the cable. Its length does not exceed 1.8 m, so it will not be possible to put the device very far from the TV.

If we continue talking about the wire, then it may cause surprise. The fact is that it has two connectors. One of them is inserted into the antenna input, while the other is used to connect to the USB port.This allows you to power the amplifier directly from the TV! So, you don't need an outlet. It is curious that the amplifier turned out to be quite powerful. The manufacturer claims that the signal gain reaches 20-30 dB. Indeed, the antenna picks up a TV signal even in the village, where the nearest repeater is about 15 km away.

This antenna is a flat square panel. To keep it in an almost vertical position, a rear stand is used. The body of the device is made of black plastic. Usually, buyers simply put such an antenna somewhere on the side of the TV. However, some owners have decided that the accessory can bring additional benefits. They glue a photograph to the surface of the product. As a result, the purchase plays the role of a photo frame, albeit not the most aesthetic!

Otherwise, this is a familiar antenna with an amplifier. Despite the decent power of the latter, the power is provided exclusively by the energy that is transmitted through the antenna cable. But not all TVs give high voltage to the corresponding connector, so some buyers are faced with unstable signal reception. It is a pity that the manufacturer did not provide a choice - in some cases it would be easier to power the antenna from a network adapter or at least a USB connector. And someone else will be confused by the cable length, which is only 1.2 m.

The Hyundai H-TAI220 indoor TV antenna presented in our rating, powered by a set-top box, accepts digital and analog DVB-T, DVB-T2, DAB, ISDB-T and FM signals.Thanks to the presence of a special bracket, this model is easily fixed to the wall. In the case of using this antenna in the country, for more confident reception, it can be mounted on a separate mast or on the facade of the house. Easily changes position due to the rotary device.

Hyundai H-TAI220 is equipped with a 28 dB UHF amplifier, which differs from similar models in higher power ratings. According to the reviews of the owners, this model stands out for its original design, it is assembled soundly, and organically fits into any interior. The kit comes with a clear instruction that allows you to quickly set up the antenna, even for a beginner.

An excellent antenna that incorporates all the best from the previously reviewed models. For example, there is a good amplifier here. The manufacturer claims that its gain is 20-28 dB. This should be enough for the antenna to catch the DVB-T2 signal even if it is relayed by a TV tower located one and a half to two dozen kilometers from the TV. But the most important feature of the product lies in the methods of obtaining food. You can choose any of the three most popular ones. If there is a free socket, then you can use the supplied network adapter. You can also connect the antenna to the TV's USB port. Finally, some buyers rely on the voltage supplied to the antenna input.

Part of the metal structures here is hidden under a plastic case. However, the usual "horns" are still present. They are needed to further improve the stability of signal reception. To connect to the TV, a cable is used here, the length of which is 1.78 m.Not a record, but this parameter cannot be called insufficient either.

Recently, a domestic manufacturer has fallen in love with producing indoor antennas in a single design. Here, in this case, you will find a low, but wide device, the metal parts of which are located under the plastic case. The only difference is that this time the choice fell in favor of white rather than black plastic. Get ready for the fact that the accessory will require a lot of space - the window sill should be very wide. Also, not everyone will be satisfied with the cable length, which is 1.8 m. However, you can always use an extension cord. And you don't even need an outlet, as power is provided exclusively through the antenna cable.

This model is intended for use in small settlements where an on-air broadcasting repeater is not installed. For this purpose, it is endowed with an appropriate structural element that provides signal amplification at a level of 30-40 dB. But for this he will need considerable effort. Alas, not every TV is able to send it to the antenna connector. That is why it is easy to find reviews of disappointed customers on the net.If you are also not sure about the capabilities of your TV or set-top box, then it is better to consider buying an antenna with electricity generated via a separate cable.

Antenna active type for receiving analog and digital channels. It is installed on any horizontal plane in the house. Often it is placed directly on the windowsill, table or shelf, since the dimensions allow. It is protected from external factors by a reliable case. It can be installed by both a professional and a person who does not have great skills in this area.

The scope of delivery includes a cable 2 meters long. The operating temperature range is small - from 5 to 40 degrees Celsius. With a weight of 600 grams, the dimensions are very compact. We recommend using it in a country house a short distance from the city, but not close to a TV tower, as the TV signal will only get worse. Every six months it is recommended to check the condition of the grounding.

One of the best, in our opinion, models. Supports outdoor and indoor installation. Signal reception is carried out in analog meter and digital decimeter ranges. Great for use in a country house or in the country, has an external power supply. Works stably with all available TV models and receivers that support the DVB-T2 standard.

The maximum allowable low temperature threshold is up to -40 degrees. For easy installation, a stand with convenient fasteners is provided.Stable signal reception for television operation is guaranteed at a distance of up to 35 km from the repeater. The kit includes a 3-meter antenna cable with a set of fasteners and an active 28 dB UHF signal amplifier. Buyers in the reviews note the ergonomic design, the ability to connect power through the TV and complain about the lack of difference when receiving a signal with and without an amplifier.

This antenna must be connected to the mains. Without it, if it catches a signal, it is not very stable. And only if the TV tower is very close. But if you plug the network adapter into a power outlet, a real miracle happens. The picture on the TV screen starts to be displayed even if the device is in the village, and the repeater is 30 km away! This is because the internals of the antenna amplify the signal by a good 40 dB.

Otherwise, this is the usual "horned" accessory for the TV, which takes up relatively little space. There is also a D-shaped metal part here - the signal is successfully caught, including with its help. The transmission of the code in the DVB-T2 standard is carried out via a 1.5-meter cable. Some people will need an extension cord, and this is the only serious drawback of this model. However, not everyone will like the cost, which cannot be called very low.

Save yourself the overpayment by purchasing an inexpensive K131A.03 antenna for comfortable TV viewing.Lightweight and compact, it perfectly catches digital TV. It is made of steel, which is not the best material for this type of device, but its strength is an order of magnitude higher than its counterparts. There is also a position angle regulator, the maximum value of which is 25 degrees. On average, it catches from 20 to 30 channels in HD quality, depending on the region.

We also like the power of the amplifier, which at such a low price is able to raise the signal up to 40 dB. Picking up the signal depends on which direction you turned the module. Metal plates dangle on a plastic case, adding inconvenience during transportation or installation. The cable is 3 meters long and is connected via USB. According to customer reviews, it will not be able to catch a signal further than 30 km. Recommended for suburban cottages.

Many of us have encountered a situation where the antenna did not want to stably receive a signal from television. To get rid of interference, it was necessary to adjust the position of the antenna, but this did not always lead to success. Most often, this problem is inherent in accessories without a built-in amplifier. What to do? Spending almost a thousand rubles on a new antenna? In fact, the solution to the problem is to buy REMO BAS-8102.This miniature accessory is an amplifier, to which you only need to connect your existing antenna.

The device has only a couple of short wires. They will hide behind your TV. The first is inserted into the antenna connector. The second wire has a USB plug at its end. It serves to provide power to the amplifier. It can be inserted either into any network adapter or into a free USB port on the TV. After that, the stability of TV signal reception will noticeably improve!

The active TV antenna Locus L 942.10 CAYMAN, equipped with a built-in amplifier, has the ability to receive power from both the antenna input and the USB connector. This steel model works on reception of digital television in the DVB-T/T2 format. Thanks to the universal mount, it can be used both inside the room, for example, on a TV or a shelf, and on the facade of a building or flagpoles in country houses and cottages. During installation, the device can be rotated 180 degrees.

Since the product is made of steel, many users in their reviews recommend organizing additional protection in the form of a visor or canopy when installing this antenna outside the building. It is noted that in areas with difficult terrain it may not be able to cope with its task - the device perceives the reflected signal weakly.

Domestic-made television indoor antenna Delta Tsifra.5V is the best option for receiving high-quality pictures using a DVB-T2 digital set-top box. The model is equipped with an amplifier that increases the power of the television signal and compensates for its attenuation when passing through the antenna cable. Unlike other devices presented in our rating, it comes with a long (3 m) cable.

Delta Digit.5V can be used in high-rise buildings and cottages surrounded by trees, it catches well, including the reflected signal. According to the reviews of the owners, the model is definitely worth the money. In addition to reliable work, it is made of reliable and high-quality materials and can be placed in any suitable place on both horizontal and vertical surfaces without any problems.

This model was created for residents of large cities. It does not include an amplifier, so the repeater must be located somewhere nearby. The main advantage of this antenna over its competitors is its universal placement. By default, it is proposed to put it on some cabinet. You can be sure that the accessory will not draw attention to itself - it is completely painted in black, and its dimensions cannot be called in any way large. And you can also place the antenna above or below the TV, by analogy with a soundbar. At least if you agree to screw a couple of screws into the wall.

Otherwise, this is a typical indoor antenna, from which you should not expect advanced features. It stably catches the signal of digital TV and radio, it can be connected to a TV or an appropriate set-top box.It comes with a not particularly long cable, but this problem is easily solved. I am glad that the product does not require power supply. Only the price is confusing - for this money you can buy a model with an amplifier.

One of the best indoor antenna options for use in the city or near suburbs. It copes well with the interference generated by GSM networks. The amplifier is equipped with a special filter that filters out the GSM network. Work with a digital tuner and receiver is supported, and the amplifier itself is connected via an antenna jack, which eliminates the need for additional power.

The small-sized antenna also works with analog television, interacting with DVB-T2, UHF, FM standards. The gain is considered average - 33 dB, as well as a wave impedance of 75 ohms. It is recommended to place it on a flat surface in the direction of the signal source.
