Hello all, I reside in New Jersey in a basement apartment. As such, reception at times is a bit of a problem at times. I was wondering if anyone can recommend an external antenna? I am not looking for anything fancy, just something simple that will help reception. Thank you in advance.

Can you put an antenna outside? Have you tried a mobile antenna on a cookie sheet? Lots of ways to improve signals.

I used a dryer vent to bring in coax to the basement when I lived in rental. It was connected to a 5BTV HF antenna in the back yard. Worked great. Not saying you need such a big antenna:lol:
