I was a bit skeptical about whether this indoor antenna would pick up and amplify signals inside the house well enough to provide good pictures on our small over-the-air HD TV. I was pleasantly surprised when it did. It requires moving the flat plate around in some cases, but when you hit the sweet spot for a given channel it does its job well.
we bought it before the change and it worked poorly. We were always adjusting it-very frustrating. Now that the changeover to digital is done, we completely can't get cbs and abc. It's worthless and we need a new antenna.
the best interior antenna I've had. The amplification does help and product support on the phone was excellent.
This antenna will not lock on to signal from towers more than 20 miles away. This antenna was not able to lock onto any of the signal from Sutro. It is clearly written on the box as such, but the description from Amazon is missing this crucial information. I am located about 28 miles away from Sutro tower in San Francisco. However it was able to lock onto signals from Stockton about 7 miles away. It'll probably work fine if you live within 20 miles radius of the broadcast tower, but if you are not, look elsewhere.
I am very satisfied with this product. Wow.
When I have tried it with APE* amplified antenna, only 6 channels were available. In my area, the singals are rather weak.
It was compared because I used the same HD converter. So, I almost gave up using antenna and HD converter.
However, with "Phillips High performance antenna", 42 channels are available. The difference of technology.
Thank you.
