My experience has been that indoor digital TV antennas are very suspect.
Unlike analog signals, digital signals are either there, or they're not.
They are not forgiving.
I know someone who had some success with this type of antenna when he stuck
it out of an open window. He was lucky because the window happened to face
in the direction of the TV transmitters, but there were several channels
that he couldn't get.
If you insist on an indoor antenna try to find out where the TV transmitters
are in relation to your home and place the antenna near to a window facing
in that direction. Also, place it as high in the room as possible. If your
dwelling has multiple stories, place the antenna as high in a room on the
top story as possible. Your best bet is an outdoor antenna placed on the
roof, or on a mast that is above the roof or any trees.
