You don't need a set-top converter box with your "ultra-HD TV, as it already has the tuner for digital television built in (unless you want to receive unscrambled cable.) A good antenna, with the option for amplification, should do you just fine. BTW, all "aerials" connect coaxially, but they use different form factors. Some use classic "rabbit ears," while others can look like sheets of paper clipped to a cord. Still others may be vertical columns. Sometimes you have to experiment to find one that works best for your area. Also, one that will hold up to an occasional throw across the room :-D
