The wording in the Guardian is similar to this

"Crystal clear reception in an instant
Many of us suffer with 'snow', 'ghosting' or poor reception, which spoils
our favourite programmes. This tiny indoor antenna will help you receive a
crystal clear reception on your TV. Not only does this new technology bring
you long awaited high quality TV reception but it also works with AM/FM
radio. Simply plug into your TV or radio and you will instantly obtain a
better picture and sound, without the need for ugly outdoor or clumsy indoor
aerials.

A small plastic box about 2 inches square roughly with a
wire and plug that you plug into your TV. If any
electronic bods know what possible technology
can do this with no power consumed I would be
most intrigued to discover.

It's not a scam it's simply a TV aerial in a plastic box. The clue is
in the phrase "This tiny indoor antenna".

Depending upon how it is designed it *may* have a higher gain than a
conventional aerial and therefore provide a better picture.

As with all passive aerials no power supply is required.
