All you need is a basic antennae. Remember, the distance to a station is a very important factor in what channels you will catch. Start here by entering your address, http://www.antennaweb.org/Address), It will tell you how far away TV stations are and what size antennae you will need. You can get from 30-150 mile. My buddy just put this one up, https://www.walmart.com/ip/Channel-M...tenna/13968946, he catches 36 channels and he lives in Chackbay. Has it mounted about 12' on the outside of a metal building.


Also most of your big stations broadcast out with 3 channels. For instance WWL out of New Orleans has 4.1, 4.2, and 4.3. If you plan on using your mobile data to watch TV I hope you have an unlimited data plan. Watching TV uses up a lot of data.
