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

    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.

    Purchased this antenna to use with a tv in an RV, but it didn't get any better reception than my standard antenna. Not bad, just not better.

    It did not pull in many stations and on some that it did the signal was weak and would get lost.

    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.
