The Philips UHF/HDTV Indoor/Outdoor Antenna is a high-intensity HDTV antenna designed to provide a TV with a high-definition picture. The omnidirectional design of the antenna enables it to be used in any indoor location, rather than having to be pointed in the direction at the broadcast towers transmitting the TV signals. Setting up the Philips Indoor/Outdoor Antenna inside the home does not require any special skills, and only a few tools commonly found around the house will be needed.
