Want to mount outside, but not on roof. null

i mounted mine on a 25ft pole just literally sitting in the pole to hold it in place.... now catching 44 channels.. most all in HD that I didn't even catch before with Comtrash :). AntennaHelper on android is your life saver... download the application and it will show you where the strongest signals are on Google Maps so you know exactly where to point this thing for best performance. Every website online, tv fool and many others, said i should not get anymore than 25 considering it says it only reaches around 80 miles... well... im catching 44 so it seems it may really reach out and touch a tower. lol works fantastic. Move the antenna in 30-45degree increments and do a channel scan on your tv until you find the sweat spot. 45 degree turn TOWARDS MY MASSIVE OAK TREE THAT I THOUGHT WOULD BLOCK EVERYTHING, it went from 33 to 44 channels...so yeahhhhh but the app made it really really nice and easy to find the sweat spot. I have channels now i didn't even know existed in New Orleans... Couldn't believe it really. Worth EVERY PENNY... pays for iteself in less than 2 months of dropping basic cable with comcast.

No problem, bracket is good for vertical or horizontal surface, or anything in between. I mounted on a vertical wall in my attic!

I was able to mount to the side of the soffit at my mothers house, just make sure you anchor it well. If necessary, toggle bolts or Molly anchors are an added precaution.

I mounted mine on the pole that used to hold my Direct TV dish was on, and used the coax cable that was feeding all the rooms in my house. It's about 4 feet off the ground and pics up signal great!

I got a 5 gallon bucket and put a 4x4 and concrete in it. The post was 6 foot high and is mobile. i didn't want to mount on the roof as well. Great signal.

I have used mine both in the attic and have now mounted it on the side of the house. Works great!

I mounted mine on the roof first but decided I didn't like it there. Bought a channel master mast and mounted it to a pole in the ground and received excellent reception.

We put on the side of the house near the roof

This product will still work when mounted lower but will not have the range that would be there if it were mounted higher.

Mount in a 25ft pole or get it as high as you can get it. 44 channels here in my area when TVFOOL said i would not catch nothing near that. And get the TV Antenna Helper app on android and thank me later :)
