This is the famous DIY antenna (coat hangers and a piece of wood) for reception of digital tv stations.

I use it for an old Trinitron in my garage and it works great. I get about 25 digital stations and I'm 30 miles west of Chicago. I put about 10 feet of coax cable between the antenna and the digital conversion box so I can set the antenna outside the front garage door during the summer when I have the door open, but it works very well inside, too.
By the way, those indoor antennas they now sell that sit on the TV and you plug them in, the reception on these is terrible, the DIY antenna above works way better.
