    Purchased to replace a 10 year old powered assisted VHF/UHF antenna. Easy set up and fits well tucked inside the window frame. Have not experienced pixel drop off like the old one. Fair Price

    I'm about 26 miles from the broadcast antennas, and fortunately my house is oriented such that a window mounting points the antenna within 2 degrees of them. The result is I'm getting every channel perfectly!

    The antenna works good, but you need to stick it to the wall so it could work better if you have smooth wall it would stick, but if you have course wall like me it won't stick.

    Works pretty well, with a modern and sleek fashionable look. The included tape is the only drawback. I recommend using standard Command strips all over the back side.
