Product Manuals
Q: What is the range on the antenna?
A: We are between 30 and 45 miles from the local broadcast tower farms
A: Works as well as cable when the antenna gets a good dose of the broadcasting stations. It does get wonky on certain channels from time to time, but this is broadcast not cable so a lot depends on how the antenna is positioned. Usually not a problem if you are willing to get up and play with the directional rods a little. Not perfect, but it does okay for what it is designed for. The amount of TV you actually get in terms of numbers of channesl available depends on where you are in your broadcasting area. You might have a different (less useful) experience because of that but I am in a suburb of a huge metro area so overall I am not sorry I got it.
Q: How does this antenna connect to the tv? Is it a hdmi port or what?
A: The antenna connects to the TV with a coaxial cable.
A: Its not the antenna, try scanning the TV.
Q: do the rabbit ears extend or have to be extended for this to work?
A: Yes, the rabbit ears extend to 39 inches each, and are also capable of positioning at infinite angles to achieve the optimum Channel reception. Do they have to be extended in order for the antenna to work- guess that depends on the area that you live and the terrain around your home. I would recommend extending the rabbit ears for optimal antenna performance. Hope this helps.
A: you can watch over the air broadcast channels. For us, we get about 30 channels on it including Fox, NBC, ABC, PBS and a bunch of other channels that we don't really watch.
A: Depends on how far away your are from your local broadcasting tower's. there is actually a app you can down load from your Android or Apple phone ,ect.that will tell you how far the local broadcasting tower's are from you . enter your zip code . This will tell you how far away you are from them. I'm in kc.mo and im about 50 miles away from the broadcasting tower and I get about 30 channels. Hope that helps.
A: You don't need a remote to use the antenna
