    Ended up returning this HD antenna because it was worthless. I live on the first floor of a two story condo building. I originally positioned the antenna closest to the window, based on other's experiences and no channels were scanned. I positioned it on the opposite side, further from the window and 8 digital channels populated. Unfortunately, it wasn't useful since all 8 available channels were in Armenian.

      Hi MichaelSfromMichigan! I understand how frustrating it can be when you’ve tried everything and still encounter issues. Testing on three TVs without any results can indeed be disheartening. It’s possible that distance might play a role, but you’re right—something should happen. Given the circumstances, I recommend processing a return and exchange within the next 15 days. We’ll thoroughly investigate if there’s a defective item and ensure that you receive a working solution.
