Consider an outdoor antenna (if you can.) Before doing so, on line antenna
vendors usually offer maps showing which transmitters ought to give a good
signal at your address. Your main choice for outdoor antennas is between
(1) Small (folded) antenna, less than 1 ft. square.
(2) Traditional UHF antenna, 3 ft to 6 ft. with multiple reflectors.
(3) "Mattress" antenna with multiple reflectors (for which several
Youtube videos offer to show us how to build our own.)

All these connect via coax directly to your TV receiver (not to your PC.)

"The Consumer Electronics Association (CEA) and the National
Association of Broadcasters (NAB) have created a color-coded labeling
standard to classify each of the available outdoor antenna types."
