In general, your picture quality should greatly improve using the TV digital antenna. All cable companies compress their HD broadcasts, resulting in a degraded signal that is usually inferior to ATSC broadcast. However, many factors impact your picture quality, and in certain instances, it may not be significantly better.
Not all digital signals are High Definition (HD). Make sure you are using a High Definition Television (HDTV) with a built-in ATSC tuner. When connecting the antenna to a third-party receiver, make sure it is capable of receiving HD. Otherwise, no HD channels will be picked up.
No, you need one antenna for each television.
Yes, inclement weather may influence the channel's reception.

Yes, you should connect both.If you do not have an available USB port on your television, then use the supplied power adapter to power the amplifier through any standard 110V outlet. For TVs that require a tuner box, connect the coaxial cable from the amplifier to the tuner box CABLE/ANT IN port. TVs produced after 2010 generally do not have this problem.
