Q: QuestionOdd that there is no mention of the range, which is the first thing I look for. This tells me it must not have much of a range, in general, or it would be mentioned. My RCA HD antenna look very similar and is a 50 mile range. I wouldn't want any less.

Q: QuestionThe description says this is multidirectional. In A previously answered questions, it says to download an app to find the direction to set the antenna to find the stations. Does this mean you have to move the antenna every time you change channels?

Asked 5 years ago by JayIowa.

• A:Answer I had the same thought before i purchased the antenna. FYI, the app is horrible to say the least. You enter your address and then it tells you where to point your antenna. I did that but it did not improve the signal strength of the antenna. Conclusion, the app is pointless.

Q: QuestionPreviously I asked how long the coaxial cable is and the answer was "not very long". This does not help me at all! So I ask again how long is the coaxial cable.

Asked 6 years ago by sage.

• A:Answer The coaxial cable on the antenna is five feet long. The coax attached to the amplifier is three feet long. In theory, the antenna could be eight feet from the coax connector on the TV. The power cable from the wall wart to the amplifier is four feet long.

Q: QuestionHow long is the cord from the antenna to the tv. Does it have the cord to the tv and one that plugs into 110 for the amplifier. Do I need any accessories

Asked 6 years ago by sageharleys.

• A:Answer No you do not need any accessories to set up or hook up. I just pulled straight out of box, set the antenna in the window and started scanning for channels. Yes the antenna plugs into an amplifier and the amplifier plugs into the TV. It was too much wire for me so I would say with the antenna wire and the amplifier wire it maybe 10 or so feet but do not quote me on that, but it is long.

Q: QuestionCan you show me how to connect to the tv . And how to get it working

Asked 6 years ago by Desperate.

• A:Answer It’s very simple. Instructions are included in the box. Attach the coaxle end into your tv (it’s the metal end and screws into your tv). Download the app to allow you to find out where the signals are of your local channels. This will tell your how to turn the antenna to pick up the signals. Plug the electrical end into wall outlet. Turn on your tv. Tune into local channel. You can move the antenna around to get the best signal.

Q: QuestionIs there a longer cord for the antenna the cord will not reach the window

Asked 1 year ago by Michele.

• A:Answer First, see if you even need it mounted by a window. Mine is nowhere near a window and I get about 60 channels. If that doesn't work for you, you can get a coax extension cable. Keep in mind that lengthening the cable might interfere with the reception and make the signal weaker.

Q: QuestionI just purchased a new 32" Sony TV -- since I do not use cable or have a dish, I purchased the RCA "inside" antenna. My question is -- will the same antenna work on an older Sony TV, also 32" I bought in 2009? Thank you.

Asked 2 years ago by SONYtvproductfan.

• A:Answer Hello - Absolutely, your RCA indoor antenna should be able to function seamlessly with your older 32" Sony TV from 2009. Please do make sure that your TV has a built-in digital ATSC tuner, which became common in most TVs produced after 2007. If your older Sony TV doesn't have one, you'll require a digital converter box. For confirmation, I would recommend referring to your TV's owner's manual, ensuring the tuner mentioned is ATSC, not the obsolete NTSC. After connecting the antenna, don't forget to perform a "channel scan" through your TV menu settings. Have a great time enjoying your new RCA antenna!
