    Used on my LG Smart TV. Connected it up and placed it on wall behind the T.V. Scanned for channels and it was good to go.

    This low-cost indoor antenna is effective. Placing it high up against a window, I am able to view 11 HD channels in The Villages, FL. This is all the channels that are available over the air locally.

    Don't buy this

    Do not buy this! I live in San Antonio and live 17 miles from my favorite news station, KSAT 12, and this antenna can not pick up the station. It claims to pick up within a 35-mile range, but it can't even pick up WOAI 4, which is a mere 11 miles away. I've moved the antenna all over the wall, left the coil coiled up, uncoiled it (which made it worse, and even tightened the coaxial cable, and nothing worked. Please dont waste your money. Thank god, I bought it in like-new condition and didn't pay the full price.

    Works great! We had to put it up toward the ceiling but our stations come in perfect. Glad it has a white facing option, less noticeable.

    Good value ! bought on sale. Excellent reception ! Other brand plate type antennas perform similar, but cost more. TV picked up over 30 local channels. Must read the instructions and mount up high. Test first before mounting. Mounting pads are included along with a website to view location of local channels.

    Works better than my other flat antennas. Not sure how much my condo position affects the signal. This is a good value for the price.

    Works really well. I live in SF and tried this antenna as well as a more expensive amplified (one that needs to be plugged in to a wall socket) and they performed equally well.
