WiFi has nothing to do with TV

And analog TV as we know it is supposed to go off the air in 2 more years anyway. So don't waste a lot of money on it. WiFi gets more range as you locate it higher, it works only on line-of-sight. WiFi antenna cable has high losses, so you'll need to place the antenna close to the router (or computer) and compromise your location so the extra gain from a high-gain antenna, isn't just lost in the extra cable running out to it.

I know they are seperate systems

I found some helpful info here: http://64.70.221.24/DiscBoard/viewforum.php?f=5 can't decide which is better, this: http://www.radiolabs.com/products/antennas/2.4gig/non-line-of-sight-panel-wifi-antenna.php or this: http://www.radiolabs.com/products/antennas/2.4gig/11dbomni.php?PHPSESSID=7c182d7e46640a5f62dda0c24238c7e6 as far as TV, I'm considering the PR-411 Marine Radio-TV Antenna. If Anybody has any objections I'd like to know. Red, so in 2 years are you saying they will just stop broadcasting all tv over the airwaves?
