It’s not as good as my amplified,so I’m using the latter.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I actually use it outside. It works well. I had an older Mohu outside that i replaced after 9 years.
My location from station clusters is 12 mi. SW of Baltimore; 18 mi. NW of Annapolis; and 24 mi. NE of DC. I used https://www.rabbitears.info/searchmap.php. If you enter my 21045 Zip Code and 25-ft antenna hgt. you will get station/channel distance & signal strength. I'm located on a 20 degree slope, so the 25 ft. height is below the horizon facing Balto. and above facing DC. The window placement of the Leaf facing NW gave me ~131 of the GOOD signal strength channels/sub-channels. FAIR channels had chronic drop-outs and POOR channels had no pick-up. Considering all of the parameters from an RF electronics view, this is impressive. To make ant. placement and angle positioning quicker, I used a cheap Homeworx HW135STB tuner (other brands are available, but I read about this one for this specific use-case). It provides real-time signal strength of each channel, instead of waiting for a channel re-scan after each ant. re-position--a great time saver.
I've seen other similar looking ants. advertised with+1k mi. ranges. This is false; 70 mi. is the range limit of any ant. with or w/o amplifier.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I've been using this antenna for 5 months now and I've been very happy with it. I live in hilly Western Pennsylvania (at the top of a hill) and have no complaints. I live about 7 miles from downtown Pittsburgh, and the Fox & CBS affiliates' antennas are maybe 2-3 miles from my house, and I have no issues (not surprising). The ABC affiliate is probably 10-15 miles-ish, and again I have no issues. No complaints from where I live!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] So easy to install, only took a few minutes. Happy to get the 4 main network channels as clear as can be, plus 40+ other channels.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Excellent antenna. Receive almost 70 digital channels with this antenna. I know it depends on your location, but would highly recommend.
Honestly rabbit ears work better only because you can move them as needed to pull in a signal. I am less than 30 miles from the broadcast towers in DFW and cannot pull in many signals. Once I added a splitter and installed rabbit ears I can move them around as needed. I expected better.
