Some people put large antennas on their roof, but for many the rabbit ear antenna sitting on top of their television was their only antenna. It usually consisted of two collapsible antennas at a minimum. They could either be attached directly to the tv, or separate on their own base. Sometimes they had an additional loop antenna for picking up UHF signals as well.<br> + <br> + * Extend the antennas. Start with them oriented upright and with about a 30 degree spread between them. Each antenna should be about 15 degrees from vertical and they should start with their spread parallel to the face of the television.<br> + <br> + * Tune the TV to the channel you want to watch.<br> + <br> + * move the antennas through the basic combinations pausing to assess the reception that each provides.<br> + <br> + * First try one up and the other as close to parallel to the floor as you can get it.
