It works as expected. This is the 3rd one that I have bought. Either side (black or white) can face outside of the the wall. The very long coax cable is useful for custom fitting the antenna on the wall to a specific place/position. The built in wall stickers come with the antenna. I do not use them (and this is just my personal preference). Instead, I attach the antenna to the wall using clear plastic tape. Because, I decided to buy the antenna three times over about a year of time (for three different TVs in my house), I can say confidently that I like the antenna.

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.

It works indoors and outdoors, it has a long range, and it features a built-in filter to prevent 4G LTE interference. It also supports VHF frequencies, so you can get a wide range of channels even if you’re quite far from the nearest broadcast station. It works multi-directionally, too, so you needn’t worry too much about placement or orientation.

It works better than the old antenna I was using. Very good reception even in bad weather. I can’t get as many channels as it claims to get but I can get more channels than the older antenna I was using.

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.

Had a 99cent store "HD" antenna, it wasn't awful but some channels like ABC just wasn't cutting it.
Decided to stop being a cheapskate and took the plunge.
All major networks CBS, NBC, ABC and FOX over the air have Max signal. I have a bargain TCL TV, nowhere near top of the line, but this is a great antenna.
Watch it mostly for football.
Mounted antenna on a wall, not near the window but it still works great.

Recently I cut off cable and I bought this 35 miles range antenna for viewing PBS channel 12 from Boulder, which I was able to view when TV was still analog. With this, I can’t receive any signal for Channel 12. and also channel 31 (Denver) whenever there is NFL football game is on. Sometimes, signal glitches on channel 6, PBS. I assume this is due to where I live.
Other than that it’s fine
