Many people who live in deep fringe reception areas 50+ miles from the nearest broadcast tower may need a larger outdoor rooftop antenna and/or preamplifier.

One year from now some folks could have no TV through no fault of their own except choosing too remote a location to live. A converter box or a new HDTV may not be enough.
