    After a storm took out our cable TV and a repair was not available for 4 days, we bought this antenna and had it running in 30 minutes, in time to watch AGT.

    With this antenna we get more channels than we ever did with your basic cable. This was extremely easy to set up. A few times a day, it will get a glitch in it and make the tv show freeze for a couple seconds, but it always comes right back. Really that is a plus cause it is so amusing to see how people look all cracked up on the screen (lol) Of course you don't get cable movies and HBO and Starz, etc, but I'm not paying for any of it or any basic cable either. Extremely pleased.

    Easy to set up, though I added additional coax so I could place the antenna by the window. I got 34 channels, including the 3 major networks, 4 PBS channels, and QVC and HSN! I did reposition it a couple of times to get optimum reception. Definitely a great buy!

    works well in my area - picks up about 20 stations. Good picture quality. Overall very happy with purchase and would recommend to anyone who just wants basic tv without breaking the bank. check to see what stations are available in your area first so you know what to expect to be able to pick up so you won't be disappointed if you can't get it with the antenna though.

    This antenna works well with my HDTV and gives great HD signal. If possible, place as close to the window since it can lose signal or pixelate easily especially when you touch the device. Good price for free, local HD channels.

    It's just okay

    I really wanted to like this antenna, after being so excited in hearing about all the reviews for it at the store and online, It was highly-recommended to me by the Best Buy sales guy, and it's amplified via AC current plug-in, so that made me anticipate using it after have ZERO success with the well-advertised non-AC model that is on TV infomercial that is on about 5 times a day on Cable TV. That well-known and well-advertised model is incredibly BAD at picking up TV signals, and less than HALF of the over-the-air TV stations can be picked up by that antenna, and the other half don't come in well at all. That being said, however, the reality is, this particular RCA antenna is just okay overall. While it is much better at picking up over-the-air TV signals than the well-advertised TV Infomercial model as seen on TV , it still has a hard time bringing them all in and consistently enough to justify a higher overall rating. Even when you have adjusted the Rabbit Ears to get a good enough reception of 3/4 of the available channels one minute, you lose the reception of other 1/4 of them at the same time, so you have to keep getting up to adjust the placement of the unit and the Rabbit Ears to get other channels. It's like playing Russian Roulette with the TV station reception with this model. It's not a bad Antenna, but there are other better models out there to choose from. The best models are indeed the ones that are AC-powered, but of those considered, the best ones are the models without Rabbit Ears.

    Clear signal. Good range gives us many channels to choose from. Would definitely recommend. I am very happy with this purchase, I was concerned that I was not buying the best because this model did not cost as much as others available but the range and output listed on box told me this was a very good option. So please don't just buy the most expensive would be a waste of your money. This is perfect.

    Works Best Near A Window

    Hated cable. Cut the cord and bought this antenna. Did not work so hot in the middle of my living room where the cable box was, so I moved the whole set-up near a southwest facing window and, wow!, 60 channels popped up - not every one useable but definitely the big 3 and all their side bands. I could buy a bigger, fancier or more powerful antenna and probably pull in a lot more stations but for the price (and savings over cable) this one does the job for me!

    I decided to cancel cable because I really only watch the main channels (CBS, NBC, ABC, PBS). The reception with this RCA Indoor Amplified TV Antenna was great, and I actually got about 30 channels; but some were duplicates and many in Spanish (I just speak English). The unit has a sleek and modern look, not the old-fashioned 'bunny ears.' I've done HOURS of research on antennas, and trust me, if you want to save time, just go ahead and buy this one.

    I changed from a flat type to this amplified antenna and the picture quality improved drastically for all my local channels. It even picked up some new ones I didn't even know were there. Very satisfied.

    This thing does one thing, it works. It plugs in and the TV picks 100+ channels. 85 are useless, It feels like actually getting cable, where you pay for 300 channels and you only watch maybe 10. Except they're free.

    I have an older Digital antenna with both rabbit ears for converting analog signals to digital, as well as a digital antenna. I bought this model because i wanted to get rid of the old "rabbit ears" look in my bedroom. It turns out that my old antenna is better suited for where I live. This antenna performs very well if you live on an upper level in an apartment, or in an area where the land is mostly flat. But you live in the Valley in southern California like myself, where there are steep hills and mountains, or on the ground floor in a apartment complex with an enclosed courtyard , the antenna may have more difficulty pulling in a signal. My advice would be to buy it, and try it for your I live in an apartment with and enclosed courtyard setting. So I had to sit this antenna in the window sill in order to pull all in the channels. Like all antennas, you will have to move and adjust the direction for this antenna once in a while, but less often than the older models.
