    It gets a surprising amount of TV stations-- almost 60, but realistically now that I'm spoiled from streaming TV, getting to record shows, skip through commercials and rewind, I seriously doubt I'll be watching the the live, local stations too much

    This is by far the best indoor amplified antenna that I've ever owned. All channels are received crystal clear. The price is also unbelievable for the quality of this antenna. Great Job Best Buy. I'm highly satisfied.

    Easy to set up and use. Due to my location I was unable to pick up the local channels I wanted, but the channels that did get picked up came through clearly. The antenna is a bit of an eye sore if you like a clean looking set up.

    This antenna is pretty straight forward, all you have to do is plug it into the TV input and into the wall. Before buying I would recommend checking either rabbit ears or FCC DTV reception maps. If signals are green, go ahead and try an indoor antenna. If signals are yellow or red, get an outdoor antenna. Bestbuy does not falsely advertise like most antenna manufacturers online which is to be appreciated. The cable is a little flimsy though and made of plastic. However, I get the basketball channel I wanted (which means not paying $100+ a year for espn!). I'm satisfied so far.

    This worked really good. I was able to get 12 channels including NBC and FOX. If I wouldn't have had this after the hurricane I wouldn't have had TV at all. I am so glad I decided to get this. Would definitely recommend.

    This antenna is better and worse than I imagined. It brings in many more channels than I expected, but none of them are the local (Connecticut) network outlets I had hoped for.

    I needed this HDTV antenna due to a long-running dispute between my cable company and one of the local stations. This does the job really well. I was surprised at how good the quality of the picture was.
