    Works somewhat, but not for the channels I wanted. I needed an amplified antenna. It would probably work fine for someone living closer to the broadcast towers.

    The empowered antenna seems to work OK, but some days it does not pick up all the channels. The powered antenna I purchased at Best Buy does pick up all the local channels clearly! Thank you Best Buy!

    Works great. I have a much better more expensive antenna on our main TV. I purchased this one for a small TV in the bedroom. I only purchased this to get ME TV at night. I was amazed. This thing gets more channels than the more expensive antenna in the living room.

    We have an outdoor antenna but opted for the indoor antenna for our Tablo TV recording device. It was a chinch to hook up and picks up signals 35 mile radius. I would definitely recommend this device.
