...IF the signal is strong.
The reality is that some stations transmit in the VHF band and some in the UFH band. And unless the signals are strong enough, the correct antenna makes a difference.
It might help you to now which band your favorite stations transmit in.
In the OAK/SF Bay Area, a pare of old Terk amplified rabbit ears with a built in UHF loop gives me really good reception of about 60% of my station, and fair for the others. I expect better UHF antenna will improve reception a lot.
