Is an antenna needed to receive digital signals?
Yes! You still need to get that signal and bring it into the house. However, depending on where you live, you may be able to use an indoor “rabbit ear” type. If you live in a metropolitan area where there are many local broadcast stations, a table top antenna may be just fine. If you live in a rural area though, chances are you’ll need to invest in a decent outdoor version. And because digital signals travel best in a straight line, give considerable thought to installing a rotor along with that antenna. This way, you can aim the antenna towards the source for the best possible signal.
