    Well, I am not sure, I was trying to cut the cord and use an antenna and Tablo or AirTv2 dvr system. I had very little success with the consistency of signal so eventually gave up after many, many attempts with various antenna's

    Great little antenna for the price. Has some trouble bringing in channel 2 in my area but it's probably the position of my house and not the antenna.

    I got this to receive the major channels like ABC, CBS, NBC. The TV is right at a window and I even tried placing the antenna outside. Poor reception. I live in a city, not remote at all. It's a complete waste of money. Don't bother. Get a higher powered item.

    I purchased it for local channels i recently returned the more expensive brand that didn't even get the 3 channels. The employees in store were all saying they're the same. A tad bit concerning to hear given the price difference. I read all the mile ranges and physical size in my window. This one gave me all the local channels for a week. Then ABC became an issue. Did a rescan and it dropped half the channels. Even with the amplifier it's not great. So if you're buying this get a very high point with direct access to a window. Just not possible for me or most people

    It’s not a simple antenna connected to the tv, it comes with multiple wires that need power from the tv and wall outlet.

    Didn't work for us. We got one channel for a few seconds very clear and then it went out. Assuming its because we are not close enough to a signal.

    I should have done more research before buying this thin indoor HDTV antenna to get local channels. Recently cut the cable cord, and streaming with Roku (love it). This antenna was to help us get the local channels. It was easy enough to assemble and attach. We live in a major metro area, so plenty of OTA channels nearby. This thing picked up 20+ channels, but the reception was horrible....pixelated. Attempted moving it around, and it help for certain channels. Do yourself a favor and bypass these ultra thin antennas, and buy something more substantial. This is just outside the return window, so it's going in the trash.
