outdoor antenna

Exterior signal catcher

An outdoor antenna is a device mounted outside a building to receive broadcast signals—typically for television or radio.

Outdoor antennas generally perform better than indoor models because they're positioned higher and away from walls and other obstructions that interfere with reception: We installed an outdoor antenna on the roof to pick up local channels.
