    Works great! It will not revive signal behind the TV, has to be displayed on the wall out in the open. I was hoping to be able to hide it. The antennae is plug and play.

    A few tricks to set up

    As an inexpensive antenna, it's fine. An HDTV antenna is a finicky thing. You have to get it aligned to the HDTV broadcast antenna. In the Chicago area, that's the top of the Willis Tower (pronounced "Sears Tower"). I found that the cable was an important part of getting good signal. I needed the cable to be straight up and down, as close to 90 degree bends, and the horizontal part needed to be hidden behind the TV. Then I got a good signal.

    Works surprisingly well. I can now get all the network local digital channels for those times when we want to watch something live. Main gripe is that that the cable is too short at 10'. I had to attach an extension which fortunately I had leftover from my cable modem install.

    I ordered a more expensive antenna online and could not pick up one single channel. I saw decent reviews for this one from Best Buy and decided to give it a try. I am now able to pick up almost 50 channels, including several local news channels. All I had yo do was open the antenna, connect it to the tv, and scan. Works great! (I live in the suburbs of Milwaukee, WI).

    This antenna mostly works. It gets a lot of channels, but I had a hard time getting ABC. I'm not sure if it's the antenna's fault though. It's easy to use and it mostly works.
