So, provided it is hooked up to a proper outside aerial (indoors will pick up radiated noise from your comp) compare the image quality with that of your normal TV. It should look as good, if not better, given the smaller and higher-res screen.

So not a lot of help.

Tuning it to an antiquated motorcycle sitting outside, or the Ariel Atom car will be less than optimum Cicero.

But if you tried an Aerial, it may help?

I use older TV cards here, they work fine but the result is a bit lower in quality than a comparable size TV.

I still forsee problems, as an aeriel is a type of elf. Just where will you plug the cable in?

I really think you should try an aerial, or better still an antenna designed for VHF bands I and II, plus UHF.
