    The antenna is ok but the wrong outlet. But I managed to tape it securely to the back of my stereo receiver.

    Had the Geek Squad install this when they were hooking up my receiver to the speaker selector and amplifier. This antenna did not work what so ever. My handmade antenna made of 6 feet of speaker wire picked up better reception. I returned this to Best Buy and immediately received a credit.

    Maybe it is where I live. but this unit gets no additional reception than a built in antena in a receiver. Wish it boosted signals, but it does not enhance a signal whatsoever. Why bother???

    Poor signal strength for FM reciever got more and clearer reception with the wire antenna the receiver came from the factory with would not recommend for use of FM Antenna. Great slim compact design
