A: I live in the mountains and tried this unit, all it did for me is boost static. My tuner is a 25 plus year old Pioneer with 250 watt output, one of the first Pioneers with Dolby Digital.
Q: How far can this get radio stations. Can it get an FM signal from 70 miles away?
A: I live on the south side of Norman and my Bose radio still wont pick up the OKC stations on the N side of OKC. So, maybe 25 miles? It did improve reception on the closer stations.
Q: Doesn’t seem to work on my Yamaha receiver ... is the RED light in the front indicate anything?
A: I tried one on my old Pioneer receiver and it only boosts the sound and static. I went back to the old antenna.
A: Shelf is fine. Just needs to reach system.
Q: Does this antenna work with a Bose radio?
A: The 75 ohm connection doesn’t fit with the Bose sound wave connection. The connection is too big. The flange is too big. Looking for an adapter now.
Q: What is the red light on the front for? I can’t find it in the quick start guide.
A: Just means it’s on
A: This requires a coaxial cable port and is powered which means you need a 12-volt power inverter to AC (they are available and plug into your cigarette lighter or similar 12-volt DC power port). Some new cars are equipped with these already built in- I know the newer Ford F-150 is equipped this way. As to- if it would work- I don't know. The antenna to radio connection might be a problem.
Q: Is this a high frequency antenna?
A: AM/FM bands.
