    We cut the cable and couldn't be happier. The high number of channels and amazing picture are more than we expected. Installation was simple, most adaptable mounting hardware was included.

    We picked up another 6 channels with this antenna. The best thing is they're all crystal clear and there is no breaking up. Sure beats a high cable bill!

    Works as advertised, picked up more channels than other OTA antennas. Only downside is the size of it if you use it indoors. Everyone in my family uses this model instead of paying for TV.

    Got it 2024 to listen to the local broadcast of the Super Bowl. TV station is about 55 miles away. This one said it could pull from 70 miles. Did great, but conked out in the 4th quarter. :( That's why only 4 stars, but otherwise it worked great.

    Seems to be powerful. I live in a communications black hole and have trouble getting good radio and TV signals. Non of the flat indoor antennas worked. This one does. I have it mounted indoors in the same location as the previously tried flat indoor only antenna. Even though it works great I had to return for another as it was defective and could not be fully assembled. The replacement was not defective. Despite that first one being defective, the antenna is actually well made and very robust. Best Buy exchanged the antenna with out question. That was only after the security worker at the front door insinuated that there was nothing wrong with it and that instead I wasn't smart enough to assemble the antenna.

    The antenna was easy to assemble. It came with everything necessary for me to install it in my attic. It gets fairly good reception (better than those flat pieces of plastic you can buy online). It is fixed, so there is no motorized option to move it for improved reception (realigning it is all manual, which I did trial and error to optimize channel reception). There is no pre-amp or amplifier of the signal, so if the coax cable run is long, you might want to consider buying an amplifier (I use one because of the cable length and a splitter to two outlets).

    We purchased this antenna because Dish kept removing one or more of our local channels. We tested it from inside the house (facing out a large window) and it got all the channels perfectly. Of course, Dish settled the dispute before we had it installed in our attic, so we're just going to hang onto it until their next contract dispute. It's nice to know it works so well. If you have a smart t.v. and plug in a thumb drive to it, you can even pause live t.v. for up to 90 minutes (as long as you don't change channels). This was an unexpected feature. Although it can't compare to the features of Dish's Hopper 3, it's a good alternative if you don't need all the bells and whistles it offers or just don't want to pay for them!

    We put a filter on it and put it in the attic facing the area where most of our programming originates. It works GREAT . We plugged in to the wiring already in place for cable. Worth every penny!

    Easy to install in attic, I would recommend getting a 2 gauge grounding cable connected to it as well, this will improve reception.

    We got this hooked up and I am amazed how many channels I get. I've had Dish for years and going to get rid of it. The picture I get with this antenna is far superior to what I was getting with Dish.

    Working 72 miles away from broadcast antennas

    I'm 72 miles due north as a crow flies from the DFW antenna farm in Cedar Hill, I'm able to receive 97 channels including all of the DFW major broadcast networks with this antenna. I have the antenna pointed towards the DFW antenna farm but I'm also receiving some stations on the back side of the antenna like KTEN and KXII. I have the antenna mounted in my attic as high as it will go which is about 20 feet above ground level. The antenna needed minimal assembly and the included bracket and mounting arm were sufficient for my installation.
