Indoor TV antennas can also provide some much-needed TV backup if a storm knocks out your cable.
This amplified digital antenna can receive hundreds of HD TV channels, including ABC, CBS, NBC, PBS, FOX, Univision and can filter out cellular and FM signals.

This Amazon best selling antenna is regularly priced around $23, but we've seen it for sale as low as $15.
