You have to move the antenna slightly until you pick up those channels
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.Did you plug in the USB to your TV or a AC adapter? Mine came with one and it worked right out of the box after I plugged it in to my TV USB port. You can use the wall adapter too for the USB, helps a LOT :)
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.I bought the 50 leaf and do not get standard ABC, CBS, NBC, but certain affiliates. I opted to buy the new Apple TV 4th generation and downloaded the apps for the main networks.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.Read the FAQ'S on the Leaf site. All kinds of things can cause poor reception. If you live near large trees, freeways and flight paths or get a lot of wind you may have reception problems. I found that it was necessary to spend a lot of time moving it around to get my favorite stations. Ultimately I returned the Leaf and get a outdoor rooftop antenna. Solved all those problems.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.The signals, based on the zip code only, show that the towers are 30+ miles away. You would need a Leaf 50 amplified antenna for those stations however a few of the channels are being transmitted in VHF so in order to pull in the VHF signals you'd need a Sky 60 roof/attic mounted antenna. Our Leaf 30 has a 10 mile VHF range, the Leaf 50 a 20 mile VHF range and the Sky 60 a 45 mile VHF range.
