Excellent Antenna
By wordweaver
This antenna is great. I pick up 75 channels and some are over 100 miles away. I am on here right now to buy a rotor so I can turn it to other channels without doing it manually. About 50 of those channels are one direction and the others are in other directions. I plan on using the rotor to tune them all in from the comfort of my chair. Most of the channels are very clear. About twice a day there is an interference on one set of channels as they fade in and out for about an hour. But, then they clear right back up. If you are not picking up channels with this maybe you should move it slightly until you find the spot. I only need English, but I pick up channels in three different languages. I did not realize there were this many channels through an antenna. Many are older programs, but that is fine with me. I really like the older shows. I went to the site that shows where the signals are and drew a chart. With that it was simple to point the antenna to exactly where they come in at. This antenna is not multi-directional. You do have to be pointed at the signal area. That is the only thing that kept me from choosing 5 stars. However, I have heard that the signal is much stronger with this type of antenna because the multi-directional ones are not as strong. I do recommend this antenna.

100 mi range is wishful thinking.
By Anotherone
I got this to replace my old antenna. Thought 100 mile range would easily give me good signals on stations that are 50-60 miles away. Using this antenna and a 24 d/b booster i can only get two of the 5 local stations at 55 miles. And bad weather will often kill the signal even a decent rain. Not really impressive.It is not all the antennas fault. Basically this antenna might get 75-100 miles with a 40 ft tower( max height your allowed), a broadcast tower that is still pushing high watts( many turned their wattage down because digital doesnt require as much power) , a very strong pre amp, and some luck. Dont expect 100 miles out of this except under the best conditions and only then after you add a bunch of accessories( 40 foot tower and pre amp). Really not worth the buy if you live more than 50 miles from the broadcast towers unless you only occassionally watch tv and its really not that important to you.I give it 3 stars because they dont tell you that 100 miles is not at all typical but like extremely optomistic and "i just won the Lottery Jackpot!" lucky.

6 Channels from a little over 100 Miles. Very happy with the perfomance!!!
By DAVID E GOFF
Living right at 100 miles from the closest city with television channels I was hessitant to switch to antenna and really wasn't sure if it would work out or not. But was really tired of paying the dish company so much a month and mostly only using local channels. I purchased this antenna and the RCA booster. It was easy to install and I was able to use existing cable I had from my dish network to distribute the signal thru my house to different TVs. Long story short I was able to recieve every channel broadcasting from there with a little adjusting of the antenna and the heighth. This along with my Smart TV, I can now watch local channels and other movies and programs off the web. All in all it is money well spent.
