I'm looking to buy a new TV tuner for a convertible. I do not know a single thing about tuners. Any experts out there can you tell me which is the best one, and what type of antennea do I need? Like what is the best TV tuner setup out there with antennea or without, which ever is best. Note i need to have a place to put it in the convertible. Thanks a lot, you guys are great.

How about an antennae amplifier? I had one on my TV in the house (a long time ago) and I remember it working great (compared to not having one). Do they make these for mobile video?

My suggestion is to buy diversity tv tuner with dual diversity antenna capability. Since you have a convertible, You will need to mount the antennas on your inside of your windshield. I would mount one on the top corner while the other is at the bottom corner.

Both of my SUV's have diversity tv tuners and love them very much. Nothing like watching local channels when you wanna catch up with your news and regular tv shows.
