Anyone know how to run an antenna so i can pick up the hd channels

Like the post says i want to get the hd channels so i can watch the football games today in high def, and do i need a special antenna in order to do this?

assuming your tv has a digital tuner in it:

step 1: run antenna (rabbit ears, whatever)
step 2: find digital broadcast channel you want. use titantv.com or something
step 3: peak signal
step 4: watch football

my tv does have a digital tuner an i just went to radio shack to grab a antenna an they tell me i need a 50 dollar hd antenna is this true or are they tryin to hustle me into buying the more expensive one?

theyre hustling you. any antenna will pick up HD as long as it can get the broadcast. with digital there is no static so either it will come in in HD, or it wont come in at all.

picked up a $10 antenna enjoyed hd football all day thx fo the help
