A:AnswerYes,it has a powered amplifier, just before it screws into back of tv,it has a 6 inch pigtail to introduce power and I have mine on chimney and trees might hurt reception but not much,,get it up high as you can
A:AnswerWe had the same problem. There is an easy solution. In your TV settings menu you should find options to select "cable" or "antenna". If your TV is set to cable it will not receive any UHF stations. Change the setting to "antenna" and rescan for stations. We received a whopping 66 stations after making the change.
A:AnswerYes you can. I did this and then split the feed in the house and was able to use one antenna for all three of my TV's. Works great and saved me from buying multiple antennas.
A:AnswerThe best I can tell it is NOT a true omni-directional antenna. The instructions say that 'if possible point it towards the transmission tower'. Sounds directional to me. Given transmission waves do bounce around somewhat, the antenna will pick up some signals from the sides, and perhaps some from the back. If you read up on own-directional antennas then you'll see how they address placement, etc. Hope this is helpful - in a round-about, omni-directional sort of way.
A:AnswerUnfortunately the mounting base-plate is too wide to fit on a 4x4 post. Four of the six holes can be fastened to a 4x4 post, but part of the base-plate (and two holes) will hang off to the side of the post.
A:Answeryou only need an internet connection for a smart tv
if your goal is to turn in your cable boxes...and you have internet.....you don't need a smart tv to do it
we choose to turn in our cable boxes....that use vast amounts of electricity even when the tv's are off... and cable box charges are not cheap... you are on the right track..
if you have internet....and you are near...20 miles or more if your HD powered antenna is not in a valley...the picture AND the sound are better than cable from a HD powered antenna..
THAT'S A FACT
if you have cable....there is also the ability to buy net-flix and hulu….much cheaper that cable tv
I hope this helps...
A:AnswerYou can, depending on the actual received signal strength. I live on a higher elevation and tested mine with the antenna laying on the couch and it worked great. However I put one up for a neighbor who lived at a lower elevation with a lot of trees around. We had to install that one outside and tried different locations until we found the best one. The best part of this antenna is it is capable of receiving stations in the lower frequencies. Many of the antennas listed for HDTV have an amplifiers that filter out the lower non-HDTV broadcasts.
A:AnswerIt will work if you put it inside at the window but not as good. It will tilt so I put a put a extra bolt in the tilt part so I can adjust it when some channels need a different position.
I'm not sure you want to get this or not but if you can set it up outside you would have better luck.
A:AnswerYou will need a power outlet close to the antenna. One end of the power outlet attaches to the antenna, the other end attaches to your TV cable.
A:AnswerI live 30-plus miles out, and I tested mine laying flat in a chair in an upstairs room. I tried a few different antennas NONE of the others would receive the lower frequency channels or have the reception power of the HDTV signals. But it will be different at each location. You must have a GOOD 75ohm cable (comes with a 25ft)
A:AnswerThis antenna picks up local digital station broadcasts. Nothing to do with satellites. For our usage range is about 30 miles. Product says it's good to about 60 miles (i assume with little obstructions and relatively flat terrain)
