    If you live out in a roll area and you aim this directly towards where you are receiving channels, this is one of the best antennas that you can buy for the money it crushes all others other than some of the higher dollar ones within the price range you can’t go wrong with this one

    I had tried a few antennas to get Ksat12 in San Antonio once I cut the cord and was unsuccessful. I bought this one and put it on the roof and it works great. If your looking to get the next gen channels without breaking the bank this antenna is it I used the spectrum coax wiring that was on the house and the splitter they used and hooked up this antenna and now it works on all my tvs

    The antenna works pretty well mounted outside. I receive over 90 stations (45+ more than an internal flat antenna), including CBS, which I was unable to bring in living 25 miles from the transmitter. Overall, I'm very pleased with this purchase.

    Works great. Immediately after setting it up on the side of my house, I got 72 channels. Most come in clear, a few have interference. They are the ones that I really don't care about. All my local channels are clear. Would recommend this antenna.

    Works well in most locations around my apartment on the balcony. Indoor/outdoor antennae were not effective. Its quite big and not pretty but works great. Doesn't come with cable, buy separately if you need a long coax.

    Love this antenna. Great quality, signal and customer service/support from antenna Direct. I have it placed inside my home on top of a bookcase next to the TV. (Highly recommend buying the stand from the company if you place it on a flat surface inside.) It takes some tinkering to position it right so that all the local broadcast channels work. But it depends on the signal you get at your home and in the room where you place it (I called customer service and they were very helpful). I was pleased to find many additional “bonus” channels. The nice design makes it ok to put inside your home — it’s not an eyesore, and actually looks almost like an artistic decorative item. I connect it to a Tablo Gen-4 DVR device so that I can record shows. That device has loads of bugs & issues (and degrades some of the signal & channels), but it’s one of the only options I could find. Works adequately. Very pleased about the money I’m saving after dropping Xfinity TV, and don’t miss it at all.

    We purchased this digital antenna to use our TV while tailgating, and it was a total game-changer! The reception was flawless—no static and a crystal-clear picture for the entire 8 hours. Highly impressed!

    The best antenna for OTA viewing. Clear reception of local stations without adjusting the antenna when changing a channel. Place it indoors or outdoors in your house / apartment building & free $$$ over the air television.

    This item was recommended by an employee. I had it inside my home and it said I was receiving 97 stations. Today I moved it to my roof and now It says I have a whopping 172 channels! Thanks Best Buy for recommending this item.

    I had been buying and returning numerous antennas (5). The local channels would break up and sometimes disappear causing me to have to rescan the local channels. This would happen clear or cloudy, rain or shine. This antenna works and has given me no problems.

    We live in a hollow with many trees and houses and a few hills between us and Seattle some 25 miles away. Once pointed accurately, it pulled in all the Seattle stations and a bunch of internet stations when used with a Tablo DRV and Apple TV. It is very low profile and practically invisible up near the roof overhang. Highly recommended
