Not very good reception .
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I live in the St. Louis metropolitan area and it it doesn't even give me all of the local channels. NBC ,PBS and ABC are in and out ( sketchy) on the best days. You need to go back to the drawing board.

||Posted . Owned for 2 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The very interesting fact that this amplified antenna found only 18 air channels. At the same time, Insignia non amplified antenna found 38 air channels. Paradox?

Didn’t work well
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I checked the fcc website and I should be able to get numerous channels with this. Only picked up 1 channel and no matter how much I moved it, the channel was so fuzzy you couldn’t watch. I went to take it back and Best Buy only gives you 15 day return and I did not realize that. I assumed it was at least 30 days like everywhere else. So now I have a non functioning antenna that I paid $50+ for. Thanks!

Too little too far
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Easy to install. Pretty goo quality. Only gets 5 channels. So not good for my area. I’d return it but it’s too much trouble.

||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.While I receive more channels than I thought I would, there seems to be a problem getting clear connections. Even the Jacksonville channels tend to pixel a lot.

Posted .Hello Rafael, thank you for taking the time to leave a quick review of the Amplified Thin Film Indoor HDTV Antenna. I am sorry to read that you are having image issues with your antenna, please help me with the following troubleshooting points:
• Move your antenna, then scan for available channels on your TV or
set-top box.
• Keep the antenna away from sources of interference, such as air
conditioners, hair dryers, and microwave ovens.
• Your antenna may be too far from the broadcast antenna to receive an
adequate signal. The signal may also be affected by obstructions
between the broadcast antenna and your antenna.
• Make sure that the signal strength from the antenna is adequate. Some
TVs have a signal strength indicator. Check your TV manual to see if your
TV has this feature.
