    It picks up pretty good. I have a lot of trees and I think it makes it more difficult to pick up stations. If you have a unobstructed yard I think you would maximize the antenna. All in all it's the best I've used.

    Outdoor Antenna For Receiving Local Stations

    I mounted this antennae outside on my patio enclosure roof; used the app to locate surrounding tv station towers and aimed the unit. I had the GEEK squad come to my home to setup the TV and show me how to navigate the system, which turned out to be very easy, even for me. I have received a total of 82 stations. I used the antennae about a week and after I was sure all was working okay I called my cable supplied and stopped service; saving about $65/month.

    This was an excellent choice for my beak up with Directs TV, was able to get 70 + channels, used all the old wiring and splitter for the same seven TV’s with no problem. The price was a little high but it pays for itself in one month.

    I am getting reception from channels up to 75 miles away. The reception produces a better picture than cable TV gave me. I am fully satisfied.

    This antenna is far superior to the one it is replacing. Many of the channels with the old antenna would not come in with bad weather or would go in and out or freeze. With this antenna we are getting great reception with no weather related interruptions. And we are getting more channels because of the longer range with this antenna. Highly recommended.

    This is the second HD antenna I’ve purchased after cutting the cord on my satellite antennae. I had hoped to mount this in my attic but the geek squad wasn’t allowed to go in my attic I was told when they came to install it. This antennae pulled in over 40 channels on scan vs the 5-6 I was getting previously. I’m very pleased with this. It allows me to get all of my local channels on the same tv.

    Frustrating, but good

    So here is a real review. While this thing takes only minutes to piece together, finding the proper setting to get stations was insanely hard. I downloaded the app, and it tells you the direction to point them, however, there is height and pitch to consider, and that’s all a guessing game. It took over two hours of random and frustrating adjustments in order to get it to work. But when it finally did. It made all the difference in the world.

    We recently cut the cable. We initially had a cheaper antenna that was supposed to be very long range, but, it didn't hardly work at all. We went to Best Buy and found this one. It works pretty good, getting lots of channels in, although we are currently getting quite a bit of interference. We live in a very rural area and we are still trying to find the correct placement and angle for it. Hopefully we don't have to mess with it too much after we find the right spot.

    After trying all the different types and brands of antennas, THIS is the one I wish I'd bought from the beginning. I will say, every other antenna I tried was decent for the price, but this is what to get if you want a good connection, plenty of channels, and easy to install! (My advice would be to follow the instructions and you will not be disappointed!)

    We mounted this on the edge of our covered patio. It is small enough where nobody really notices it, but gets big signal. We pickup every channel broadcast near us for 50 miles plus. Before mounting it, we tested the location by zip tying it to an extension ladder, standing it up, and running a temp coax to the tv. Very happy with it so far.

    The antenna surprised me with how well it works in a questionable location--in an attic under a sloped roof. It has to go through wood and concrete tiles. There are trees and a two story house in the direction of distant transmitters. Picture quality is very good. Assembly and installation were easy.

    i bought this after canceling cable and for a wifi tv that streams apple tv , amazon etc. but nothing local so i couldn't watch either the local news or Sundays games ( and i had tried other digital antennas that didn't work very well ), its easy enough to put together and i installed it on the railing out front (poor installation) , i get 10 Good/Clear stations this way , but i feel confident that if i went the extra mile and installed this antenna with care & precision that i could get more stations. also, it is doing so well that i bought a second one for outback. and am now saving $60 Mo on Cable /direct tv

    Great product. Pulling in 65 free channels with this antenna. Mounted outside to the right of my gable vent. Downloaded antenna point app to locate the most cluster of tv towers within a 70 mile radius of my home. I can not recommend this antenna enough to people. Well worth the money. Very easy install.

    I've had the antenna over one year now and it is much better than ones I tried years ago. I'm near a very large hill, but I can pull in the stations I care about. One station has a tendency to go out when planes fly overhead. I don't know if this is due to how they send out their signal or not. The other local stations don't seem to have this problem. I'm pleased with how much money I'm saving using it.

    I had it with the satellite system I was using to receive my TV stations. My complaint is the same as anyone else, too much for too little service. I am able to pull in a lot of local stations reaching out to around 60 miles. The reception is good, and I am pleased with the ease with which it went up.
