    I literally only received one channel with this antenna—and yes, i tried many positions. I could pick up 5 using a stripped coax cable by itself.

      We apologize for the disappointing experience with our Best Buy Essentials Thin Indoor HDTV Antenna. We're sorry to hear that you were only able to receive one channel, despite trying different positions. We understand that the antenna's 35-mile range was not met in your case, and we appreciate your comparison to using a stripped coax cable, which suggests that the antenna may not have been performing as expected. We will take your feedback into consideration as we continue to improve our products.
