A: This antenna can receive channels from up to 45 miles away from broadcast towers.
Q: Is there an app I can use to help with antenna placement?
A: Yes, you can use the free RCA Signal Finder App. It acts as a digital compass to help you find the best placement for your antenna to receive the most HD channels.
Q: How does this antenna improve signal reception?
A: This antenna uses RCA's advanced SmartBoost technology, which amplifies weak signals to deliver the most channels possible while filtering out false signals.
Q: Will this work with a Samsung tv?
A: Hello Kate - The antenna will work as long as your Samsung TV has a ATSC digital TV tuner built-in. Listed within your TV’s specifications (somewhere inside your TV owners manual), there will be a type of “tuner” listed. Your Samsung TV must have “ATSC” listed as the type of tuner. Most TV's built after 2007 have this type of tuner. An easy way to find out is by entering your TV’s model number and performing a Quick Google Search for your TV model number. Again, the type of tuner listed should be an “ATSC” and NOT and “NTSC”. If your TV does not have an ATSC tuner built in, you can still use the antenna but you will need to purchase a digital converter box. You can purchase any brand of digital converter box from Best Buy. If you can send us a quick email to [email protected] with your zip code, we can determine what antenna would be best suited for your specific location.
Q: What is the range for this antenna?
A: Says 40 miles but to be honest I can’t get local stations less the antenna is sticking out a window
Q: If I want to put this antenna in the window, how low is the cable?
A: Cable is short, maybe 3 feet. I'm sure you can buy a different, longer coaxial cable and it should work fine to reach a window. My box sits in the middle of a room behind my TV and about 10ft from my window and it works fine.
