[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Antenna works great on top of my house. Stations are 10 to 60+ miles away. Receive 20 channels with no issues with clarity. Only knock is it didn't do as well in my attic. Only 10 channels
I would recommend this to a friend!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This antenna installed well and has given great results. A very big A+ goes to the employee: Tom Jarus, who has been so helpful to me. Not being savvy in this field it is certainly appreciated. Many thanks.

struggling to get reception

This antenna is probably fine for most locations, but the introduction of digital signals put us in a no-man's land between two major metro areas and it keeps getting worse no matter what we try. For many years we were fortunate to receive all Baltimore and Washington channels for free, with only rare instances of poor reception due to weather. At the onset of digital signals we immediately lost access to some channels, and reception has gradually deteriorated on all of the others in the years since. There are fewer trees in the way due to suburban sprawl and we're on top of a hill, but there are new buildings dotting the landscape. We're less than 25 miles from the furthest towers that transmit more than 30 local channels but sometimes we can only get one or two stations, and it's especially difficult at night. The rabbit ears on a TV in a lower level of the house get better reception than any antenna we've installed. I believe if you've tried and failed with other similar antennas, then there's little value in searching for phrases such as long range, indoor/outdoor, and multi-directional.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

works great

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I mounted it on the same pole my old dish was mounted to and used the wiring the cable company had done at my home previously. I also installed a small powered amplifier so we could send the signal to 4 seperate tv's. It worked great and I was picking up tv stations from over 90 miles away.

Easy to install with great reception. I wish I purchased this first. I would recommend this to everyone that needs Ultra Long Range.

Works great in attic

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I tried a Mohu Leaf and it only would get 2 channels at a time from my south east and would not get any VHF channels to my west. I'm about 15 miles from the broadcast towers with mountains in between. I put this antenna for UHF and a clearstream 5 for VHF in my attic going into a UHF/VHF combiner. Works great! I get all the channels tvfool.com told me I could possibly get at my address. I get all the major broadcast channels in my area in full HD. Thanks to Alex who guided me through my purchase and confirmed lots of specs for me, while ultimately giving me a great bundled discount. Superb customer service. I'm so happy to not have to pay for cable and get these free channels. BTW, I run my cable internet connection on a dedicated line to not interfere with the antenna or send noise back out to the cable provider. Luckily my house was run with separate cables to each room so I could make this easy switch in the attic. I'm running five outlets without major issues. The farthest room does have issues getting one of the lower strength signals (ABC), but I can live with that, as that channel comes in on the other rooms.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] With lots of trees and two towers in different directions I needed two antenna. A.D. was very helpful in getting me the two antennae I needed and they work perfectly. Went from a cheap omni-directional to two directionals and my channels increased 50%.
