When watching television via antenna you typically connect the equipment to a TV set. However, it is still possible to view the video from the antenna on an LCD monitor, you just need additional equipment to perform the hook-up. This is helpful if you have an extra monitor lying around the house and don't want to purchase a TV. Because there is no actual tuner installed you must use a digital to analog converter box to receive the broadcast signals.
Step 1
Connect the coaxial cable running from the antenna into the "In" port on the digital to analog converter box.
