I ditched cable a while back for a Chromecast and Firestick.
Shortly after I moved to a different house, now I’m not getting many of the basic channels like I was able to before.

Looking for suggestions on a decent new style rabbit ears antenna for the basics.
Anyone have experience with these?
 
How much are you looking to spend? You could always go with something you can mount in the attic or on the roof and receive a high amount of channels. You'd run the antenna to a signal amplifier, then to a splitter like you would standard cable, then all of the rooms would receive channels.
 
No idea, I think I bought rabbit ears before about 25yrs ago for maybe $10.
So that would be equal to about 80-100 today.
If it will work then I'd be willing to put a few bucks out.

Just buy a cheap set of rabbit ears for 20 bucks. You can still get them at Radio Shack, K Mart, etc. If that doesn't work for you, don't bother with any of the new style small indoor antennas - they won't work any better. Skip the middle of the road stuff and go here:

I still use my $10 Wally World rabbit ears for when I need to pull Channel 9 from Windsor. I run them into an HD tuner I have from 15 years ago and picture quality is as good as anything.
