Not necessarily. The amplifier requires a USB connection or a connection to a regular power outlet. I mounted the antenna outside and connected the amplifier in the junction box where all the cables connect inside the master bedroom. The junction box inside the home already had a power outlet so it was a easy connect. I did not find that the amplifier was necessarily needed as the mounting of the antenna and pointing direction to the transmission towers really matter the most. I live 62 miles from the transmission towers in Los Angeles and I was able to pickup 131 local channels with and without the amplifier. No more ridiculous charges for free channels from the cable company. I tried three different antenna's before I found the one that worked best. The Mohu-Air 60 without question was the best antenna.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.No. The amplifier is meant to be inside the house, preferably before you split the signal to all your rooms. Make sure you use the appropriate coax outside that has the grounding wire in it. Alternatively, put it inside your attic... it will work just as good.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.No. I installed outdoors, buried the coax, ran it into my house and amplified it once indoors. I have no power going to the unit outdoors.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.It does not. If you do not have the set up that the "community answer" guy added below you can add the amplifier to the back of the television if needed. You may find that you need one amplifier for each television that you connect but if exterior powering is an issue this is a way to work around it.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.No, the amplifier is located inside where the TV is so does not need an exterior plug. This is the usual arrangement.
