QuestionWill this antenna work in Libby, MT? we are 89 miles away from the nearest city. I believe the nearest TV station is located in Spokane, WA. Way farther than Kalispell.
Asked 9 years ago by Anonymous.
- Answer You'll need, and maybe it won't quite work, the biggest "swordfish skeleton" shaped antenna you can buy to reach halfway across a mountainous state. By "skeleton" I mean a Yagi beam antenna with many dozens of "drumstick" sized aluminum rods, built for UHF band, atop the tallest mast that will fit on your property.

Questioncan this antenna be mounted on a window? will it stick to a window?
Asked 6 years ago by midwayrider.
- Answer It comes with 3M sticker pads, I didn’t try it but would think it’s jo issue. But I’m not sure why you would put it in the window...? It works well enough above the window where you don’t have to look at it to look through your window.

QuestionI live in midtown New York City (First Ave and 37th Street). How many channels and what reception can I get? I live on 40th floor close to all broadcast towers. Thank you.Monika
Asked 7 years ago by MonikafromBigApple.
- Answer Hello, thank you for your question. The signal quality and the channels that you are able to get actually depend on several things, like the weather or the distance between the antenna/TV and the towers, just to name a few. For more information you can give us a call at 1-800-620-2790 from 8AM to 9PM CT. Ruben O. -Rocketfish support.

QuestionNo Reception! I have install as instructed and nothing? TV set on AIR In Eastern window Advise
Asked 7 years ago by Gerry.
- Answer I have an eastern antenna on an interior wall. Window is 5 feet away. Behind the east wall is a bathroom. BUT.... I was able to move my antenna one foot to the right, rescan and get the signals. It is not an exact science. Things that mess up signals are: trees, buildings, too close to the foothills of a mountain, chicken wire built into an old house (can stop wifi). An airplane flying over can mess up the signal temporarily. Signals are sent through the air. If you can put closer to a window AND up higher that will help. But don't give up without trying to move the antenna a little distance AND rescan and recheck the TV channels. Good luck!!!

QuestionCan you get MTV with this antenna?
Asked 8 years ago by DR.
- Answer Seriously? Yeah, MTV, ESPN, HBO, all the cable channels for ABSOLUTELY FREE!!! Oh wait, no, just the normal over the air channels, ABC, CBS, NBC, PBS, FOX, CW, etc. These stations also put out "bonus" channels, mostly showing older content, giving you even more channels, but no cable channels.

QuestionWhat is sling TV and where/how do I get it. Sick of paying outrageous price to ATT for what has turned into unwanted stations - the programming is awful since ATT took over DirecTV. Wish we could get ala carte tv and pick our own 50 channels.
Asked 9 years ago by RoxieA2.
- Answer Sling TV is a limited CableTV offering that is streamed channels (much like Netflix) via the internet. It is the same CATV channels you get from your Cable company, but it is an offereing by Dish Network (through the internet or satellite or coax). You plug a roku type box into your TV and hook it to the internet (wireless or wired). Therefore, you will still need your internet connection for your CATV or phone company. The packages are a limited group of the so called "most popular" channels, so you need to look at their offering on SlingTV.com to find out what is included in each package. It's less cost for less channels - otherwise cable tv streamed.
