Never owned a better attenna will recommend it to everyone

I recently cut my tv cable due to rising costs and frequent reception issues. I still have internet and subscribe to some of the streaming services but I also wanted to be able to receive local channels. I chose this antenna based on a You tube review by Antenna Man. It's definitely not the cheapest antenna I could have ordered but I felt it was a good value based on the antenna quality. I also prefer the look of the antenna compared to the old style big metal rooftop antennas. The antenna was easy to assemble and install. I first mounted it to a piece of plywood and moved it around until I received the strongest signals from the stations I wanted to receive.. I live about 38 miles southwest of Seattle. A big part of that distance is the Puget Sound that doesn't create any signal barriers but on land, there are lots of hills, trees, homes and other structures between my home and the transmission towers. I wanted an antenna that would be strong enough to pick up signals in a challenging environment. The back of my home faces a few degrees to the north of east. I was able to mount the antenna on the back of my two-story home at about 15' above ground level. I swung the antenna on its mount to face it more northward to be in line with Seattle. The antenna is functioning well. It pulls in 70 channels with 65 channels being perfectly clear I read on a couple of forums that people claimed to be receiving channels as clear and in as high of resolution as with cable. I didn't believe it until I saw it for myself. A couple of the local stations also have apps that are installed on my tv so I can switch back and forth to compare them. The picture from the antenna and the cable look the same! I like the design and size of this antenna. It sits on the side of the house without looking too obtrusive. I'll never know if another antenna would work better, potentially at a lower cost but I'm happy with this purchase and believe it's a good value for the cost.

J’ai acheté cette antenne dans le but de me débrancher du câble. J’ai été étonné de la qualité de l’image que cette antenne nous procurent. J’habite à Montréal j’ai installé l’antenne à l’extérieur sur le balcon du haut d’un duplex qui donne plein sud et j’obtiens 22 postes de télé en HD. Et ce tout à fait gratuitement. Cela représente une bonne économie malgré que je me suis acheté un lecteur multimédia et augmenté mon forfait pour l’Internet j’estime à environ 400$ d’économie par année. D’après ce que j’ai lu j’ai probablement sur estimé mes besoins pour l’internet Le temps me le dira et j’ajusterai en conséquence, alors peut être d’autre économie à venir. Pour revenir à l’antenne, disons que ce n’est pas vraiment une antenne d’intérieur. À moins bien sûr qu’intérieur veuille dire un grenier, un hangar, un garage, une grange ou comme pour mon épouse, dans fond d’un placard :-) De toute façon c’est dehors qu’elle donne son meilleur rendement. À l’intérieur à côté de la télé j’ai obtenu 8 postes, dans la cage d’escalier en béton j’ai obtenu 15 à 18 postes/ sans et avec amplificateur et 22 postes à l’extérieur sans amplificateur. Éventuellement je vais la fixé sur toit en orientation sud-sud-est j’ai hâte de voir si cela fera une grosse différence s’il n’y a plus d’interférence causé par les arbres et les bâtiments. Il y a un montage à faire mais ce n’est vraiment pas compliqué si on sait visser un câble coaxial et quelques boulons. Je recommande cette antenne à quiconque veut regarder les chaînes de télé locales gratuites avec une image haute définition claire et stable et ce peut importe la température extérieure.

Agarra muchos mas canales y no hay interferencia a comparacion de mi antena que es una antena de poste afuera en intemperie en una casa de dos pisos, esta la puse adentro junto al televisor y no tuve ningun problema ni en instalar ni en usarla, que completamente contento con esta antena. Los canales se ven casi como si los estuviera haciendo stream desde internet. Imagino si la hubiera puesto afuera seria mucho mejor, pero como ya tengo experiencia con antenas de fuera que se dañan por los elementos pues decidi dejarla adentro

The 2V antenna was initially placed indoors next to the tv. . Even though the Mount-Royal mountain is in the pathway of certain US transmitters preventing me from getting those channels, I was able to receive 10 local channels and 3 US channels situated at a 55 mile distance to the south, and the image was crystal clear . Then I had the antenna installed on the roof combined to a Channel Master CM-7777HD TV Antenna Amplifier, on low gain, now I have a total of 15 US channels in addition to the 10 local ones and reception for the majority is excellent. After one year of use, I am quite satisfied, but decided to upgrade to the 4V in order get a more stable picture on the on the channels with a weaker signal. The 4V was installed in the exact same location as the 2V by a professional installer on the roof and it basically lost all the US channels. For some reason the 2V greatly outperformed the 4V, therefore the 2V was placed back on the roof and the 4V sent back. Even the installer had no clear explanation as to why the 4V was unable to perform as well as the 2V, either it was defective or it captured more noise from the surrounding cell towers and completely lost the weaker signals.
