RCA Compact Outdoor or Attic Yagi HD TV Antenna with Super Long 75 Mile Range – Digital OTA Antenna for Clear VHF & UHF Reception, NexGenTV ™ Compatible, Supports 4K/8K 1080p TVs

This is my experience with this Antenna, please check all facts before trying this, I am not a professional. I bought this as part of my new TV setup so I could dump cable. So far everything has worked out well, just one small hitch. I decided to put it in my loft as that was an easier option for me. There is one thing I didn't see mentioned and so didn't know about until I opened the instructions, you have to buy some extra parts to be able to install the Antenna. It HAS to be grounded, otherwise you might find your house on fire one day. You will need to purchase a long enough length of grounding wire to go from the Antenna to a grounding point, like your electrical service ground. If you look around the Internet the IEEE has videos on the correct way to do this. You will also need two clamps, one to clamp the ground wire to the antenna and one to clamp the other end to the service panel ground. You will also need a grounding block to ground the Antenna coax cable, to prevent electrical surges. It was easy to put the Antenna in my loft and secure it to an upright beam away from all the other stuff up there. I downloaded a free Android Compass App and searched on Antennaweb for the direction of my local stations so I could point the Antenna in the right direction before I decided where to put it. I would suggest that you test your ground clamp hookup and do a dummy run of clamping the antenna before you go up in the loft, so when you get up in the heat and low light, you already know what to do, I had a couple of small problems that would have been avoided if I did that first. I secured the Antenna and hooked up the ground wire first, and then the coax, making sure it was secure and the grounding wire was tight at each connection, I scraped off some of the gray paint from the Antenna mount so that the ground clamp was metal to metal. Once everything was hooked up and secure I fed this into my existing cable TV coax run, so I could feed all the rooms without running any new cables. One thing, from what I have researched, this Antenna feed cannot share the cable Internet coax, so keep that separate if you still get your Internet that way. I tuned in my TV's by using the scan function and lots of channels appeared, the picture is very clear and better than my cable feed. There was a lot of foreign and local channels that didn't interest me, so I had to go through them and switch those off on each TV. The channels I kept are: CBS, NBC, COZI, CW, Antenna, This, ABC7, LWN, KCAL9, FOX, KCOP, BOUNCE, MOVIES, KCET, ION, ION LIFE, QUBO, KXLA, PBS SoCal, PBS OC, KDOC, METV, KLCS, PBS Kids, CREATE, KBEH. I have had this a few weeks and have not had one problem. I am also using this to feed a Homerun HD receiver that I also bought on Amazon, I will review this on the appropriate page, but this means that using an old PC running Windows Media Center, X-Boxes that I already had along with the Homerun and the Antenna, I now have the whole house hooked up with a DVR system that can record 2 channels while watching another, and playback my shows whenever I want to. Adding Amazon Prime and Netflix means that a few weeks in and I don't miss cable at all. UPDATE 12/24/13: I got rid of my Homerun and got a Tivo Roamio and it also works great with this antenna. It plugged in and I got setup with no problems. 2 Months later and I still have crystal clear reception with no dropouts.

I have to say I am amazed at how well this antennae works. I have been contemplating "cutting the cord" for sometime. A few weeks ago, my cable company called me to say my promotion period was ending and my bill was gonna jump significantly and wanted to know what I wanted to do. (I know, what cable company does that? Cincinnati Bell did.) Anyways, that was my motivation, so I dived into the old school world of over the air(OTA) lifestyle. Let me start with describing my set up real quick. I am using an older desktop that I have for my home theater computer (HTPC). I upgraded the HDD to a solid state drive and the RAM from 8 gb to 16 gb. Installed PLEX as a media server ( its a bit convoluted to set up, but once you figure it out, it works wonderfully). Additionally, I also purchased a dual HD Hauppauge USB tuner and a Winegard LNA-200 Boost XT Preamplifier (to boost the OTA TV signals). When I first received this antennae, I unpacked it and unfolded the arms and just connected it to the Hauppauge tuner to the HTPC and set it next to the TV. I wasn't impressed, lol. But, I wasn't going to knock it yet, because my plan was to install it in the attic and splice into the cable coaxial that was no longer being used. My attic is a bit small, no room to actually stand, but enough room where I was able to attach the included base pole to a rafter joist and then the antennae to the pole. I cut the coaxial that was already up there (was only used to connect to the (now returned) cable box, so I was safe in using it) added a coaxial plug to the line and then connected that to the pre-amp, then connected the preamp to the antennae. Went back to the HTPC, plugged in the connector for the Preamp (it is a USB powered connection) then from that to the Hauppauge tuner and the tuner to the HTPC. (It did require three three foot coaxial segments I bought at the local box store, you can make your own if you like. 1- connection from preamp to antennae,2- from the wall to the preamp USB power supply, 3- from preamp USB power supply to the tuner. ) After finally figuring out the PLEX LIVE TV & DVR settings, I was able to run a channel scan. IF you don't have an HTPC, you would just connect the coaxial directly to your TV ( or digital converter box, if its an old one) and run your channel scan through the TV process. Anyway, back to my set up.....when I had the antennae next to the TV I picked up 14 channels but could not pick up CBS or FOX. Now, with it properly set up and installed, I am picking up EVERY AVAILABLE channel (51 channels!) in my area and ALL WITH FULL SIGNALS! (both VHF and UHF signals). I have all the major networks in 1080 HD with ASC 3.1 HD Audio (standard broadcast signal). The resolution is much better than what I was paying for through the cable company. Also, with the PLEX server I can set the DVR to record what I want. My limitation is the amount of space on my hard drive. I can now watch live TV from anywhere, plus listen to my music and any movies in my library. During the recent events in Washington DC, I was able to watch HD TV in my car on my phone on a quick run to the store! I had originally shopped some pretty cool looking antennas priced $100 or more than this one, but decided to go with this based upon price and the fact it is an RCA. They should know what they are doing right? They've been around forever, great choice for me! I am very happy with this antennae and highly recommend it. With the preamp all my signals are strong. Please note I am within 25 miles of my regional broadcast antennas, but there are numerous foothills between my house and the towers. Still, my reception is crystal clear and no dropouts. Happy Tuning!

UPDATE DEC 2014: I wrote this back in Sep 2011, and three years and a couple of months later, this antenna is still up in the attic doing its job. My neighbors tree has gotten "leafier" in the last few years, so I have some issues with a few rogue channels, but all the important ones I have no problems with. Great purchase. Original Review: I had to cut cable TV earlier this year due to money issues, and from about May till September I was operating with good old rabbit ears in the house. When they worked, it worked great. But I was getting fed up of the constant moving of the rabbit ears, or the twiddling of the dial to get this channel or the other. There was some sort of interference inside my house preventing them from working well enough. Once in a blue moon, I'd get lucky, find a sweet spot and get everything, but it didn't last long. I was unwilling to go on the roof for an antenna, so I was thinking about the attic. I've been around TV for a long time, and my "head" tells me that to get better reception, you need to get a bigger antenna. I figured with a large tree in my neighbor's house, as well as it being an attic, I was looking at something large up there. Specifically this ( Antennas Direct DB8 Multidirectional HDTV Antenna ). I was looking at getting the DB8, when a friend of mine who was going to help me by mounting it in the attic suggested I might get by with something smaller. He recommended the antenna I'm writing about now. I was initially skeptical (again, the bigger is better attitude). But I read through a ton of reviews, and there were a lot of happy people. At the time I bought it, there were 220 reviews on Amazon with an average star rating of 4.5 out of 5. That's actually a higher review than the DB8 I was looking at. So I started reading, and was thinking perhaps I'd go with this. Then while we were thinking about how to run cable, I remembered when my wife and I got the house 9.5 years ago (as of Sep 2011, when I'm writing) it was wired for Cable TV. I dropped the Cable TV, but the wires were all still there. Which meant that there was a cable run there already. So I decided to run a test. I took the same stupid $6 rabbit ears I was at the time using ( RCA ANT111R Basic Indoor Antenna ), and took 'em into the attic. I found the cable that went to the jack by my TV, and plugged the rabbit ears into it. Rescanned, and wow. Not only was my interference gone, it was picking up a lot more channels than I knew about. The most I got with the rabbit ears inside the house was about 35-40. It was more here. So I figured with the rabbit ears doing that much better, perhaps I didn't need the overkill DB8, and opted for this antenna, the ANT751R. Did my research beforehand. Hit up antennaweb as well as tvfool for compass directions. Personally I think tvfool has way better antenna resources than antennaweb, but that's a side story. I got it installed in the attic (you can see a picture of my installation in the photo gallery here on Amazon). The mounting was fairly painless, although I will say what others have said. It's quite a value that the antenna comes with the mounting brackets and the pole in the box. Not all antennas do. The one thing that was missing was the wood screws needed to actually bolt the bracket to whatever you're attaching it to. The instruction manual even says to use a couple of wood screws (not included). Given they gave you the more expensive pole in the box gratis, you'd think they'd throw in a few wood screws, but that's a minor quibble. Once I got it up there and hooked up, I reran a scan on the TiVo. I was bloody well amazed at what it found! The total number of channels it found was 79. Granted, several of those are inactive, or are otherwise things I don't care about. There were also a couple of channels it found which were on neither antennaweb's or tvfool's reports. Since I live right outside of Dallas, the majority of these kinds of channels are spanish speaking something or other. Given that's not my language, they're of little interest to me. What WAS of interest to me are the major networks (PBS, ABC, NBC, CBS, FOX, & one local "old UHF" channel that broadcasts Texas Rangers games). All of these channels are quite strong. Even with the large tree outside and being in an attic, the average signal strength of these channels (according to the signal strength meter on the TiVo) is around 80-85 or so. PBS is a bit low (mid 60's), but the same friend who lives about 3 miles away from me says that PBS is his weakest signal too, but it's not an issue unless there's some epic storms out, but we're probably not watching much TV at that time anyway. At least one or two of the channels that are of lesser concern to me are quite strong - I had a couple of them as high as 98 on the meter : Oh, before I forget, in the Dallas area, the majority of the antennas (especially the major networks) are in the same general area, as it's the highest point in the general D/FW metroplex. According to tvfool, I'm anywhere from 28.2 to 30.7 miles from the transmitters (except for a few rogue close ones that are about 8 or 14 miles), and they all are 80-85 or so in an attic mounted, non powered antenna. There is no signal booster on here. It's just the antenna that was in the box hooked up through a cable run that used to be used for Cable TV into my TiVo box, and then on into my HDTV, which is this , BTW. The quality is astounding. The signals are rock solid, and I have to say, I'm quite happy with my purchase of this antenna. While the old rabbit ears worked "OK" enough (especially for $6), it wasn't quite a universal solution. I'd have to fiddle with the antenna depending on what I wanted to record. Given I TiVo everything, having to worry about where the antenna was pointed meant I was back to the pre-TiVo days of caring what the broadcaster's schedules were. Didn't like that, so I looked into what became this choice of antenna. I'm quite happy with it. I suppose the only negative I could say is that the antenna is sold as an outdoor antenna. When I was putting it together, I felt like it wouldn't hold up to extreme winds, and things of that nature outside. It works great, but if left outside to the elements, I'm not sure how well it would hold up. But as an attic antenna, it won't have to deal with any of that, so it should last a good long time up there. I was inititally concerned that this being a "cheaper" antenna wouldn't function well enough as one that was into the $100 range or so. I was wrong. This works really quite well for me.

Since October 2008, I was getting all my digital channels with the famous do-it-yourself 10$ 8-bay antenna seen on the Youtubes (coat hanger antenna). All was well, even though I was missing a major U.S. channel and the signal could sometimes drop with high winds. I also had to try different positions if the signal was very bad (on top of the bbq grill, next to it, under its hood, etc). But for a one-time payment of 10$ for material and some elbow grease, it was good. During winter 2013, the signal became much harder to get and I was tired to play around with it, so I decided to look for a commercial antenna. I looked/searched on audio/video and over-the-air forums. A comparative chart showed that the ANT751 would be the best for my location. After delivery, I immediately set it up, took out the old antenna, plugged the 751 and simply put it on the bbq grill. The signal was much, much stronger, 80%+ on all of them! The elusive U.S. channel (Fox 44) that I rarely caught only on very lucky day with the DIY, is now a constant signal. I tried the antenna without the amplifier and it was still very strong. With a splitter, I had another cable connected to the 26" LCD in my bedroom. Again the signal came on as strong as on the living room plasma. Sometimes there is a slight drop in the bedroom tv though, but nothing too major, it usually picks up. I figure I could put it on the roof or at least high on the wall with its provided support but I won't bother for now. It's too bad it only catches the UHF signal and not the VHF one, so the only other major channel I don't get is ABC. Still, with it, I get a total of 23 digital channels with 14 that are in crystal-clear high definition and they are FREE (that means a big f-word to cable companies) You buy this antenna and you basically get immediate return on your investment! I'm sure it will work well with people who don't have a flat screen too (square tv with digital converter). In conclusion, a very respectable antenna that will perform well (ONLY IF your location is suitable!). EXTRA TIP: get the best pic for your flat screens with the World of Wonder Blu-ray disc. I got it myself. Very user-friendly and your tv pic will be more amazing.

Tired of paying so much money for so little good programming, I decided to cut the cable. I kept internet. I needed to replace the programming that the family did like. I have Amazon Prime. I added in Netflix. I use ROKU 2 XD devices, plus on-board software on TVs and Xbox to access internet content. What was missing was the very few network programs that we like (e.g. The Middle). While these are available at some delay over the wire, I thought I'd try to get them live via antenna. We are not too far from the major network antennas (say, 20 miles). I started with a LEAF antenna on the family room TV. It did very well with UHF channels, but ABC, in my area, is on VHF Low. This I could only see if I turned the LEAF sideways and held it up. That would give me like a 68% signal. There was no way for me to mount the LEAF in this orientation permanently, so I abandoned the LEAF for that TV. (I also tried the Amplified LEAF with no further success.) I think that the house structures and first floor elevations were not helping the LEAF. That said, I moved the unamplified LEAF upstairs where it sits comfortably providing signal to the TV up there. It does better because of elevation... even on VHF Low. My ABC signal strength there is around 82%. That said, I need a better antenna for the first floor TV. I found the RCA ANT751R on Amazon and read through many, many positive reviews. The price was only about $41 when I purchased (today about $53). I received it quickly. Installed it on a truss post in the attic pointing to the AntennaWeb.com coordinates. No Amplifier. Installation was simple. Without any re-aiming or messing I found the following signal strengths: ABC (VHF Low), PBS=92%, NBC, CBS, FOX=100%. Perhaps I could improve the 92%s with some rotation, but no need right now. Picture is excellent and consistent. My cable run was probably about 70 feet. I just tapped into an existing coax line, with splitting to preserve. This is great. I can see network sports like NFL, etc. I don't have to pay a penny for cable any longer. I am now on to achieve OTA DVR functionality. This is more complicated than it sounds. I don't want any DVR options which require a monthly subscription fee. That eliminates TIVO and some other units. I didn't get rid of cable just to pay my savings out to other providers. There are a few HD DVRs that seem designed for OTA recording, but they look to be very expensive ($300-$400), and the reviews are not generally impressive. After just about giving up on the DVR for the time being, I found the HDHOMERUN Dual Tuner here on Amazon. (about $90). (SiliconDust HDHomeRun DUAL High Definition Digital TV Tuner HDHR3-US (Black)) This looks promising. It gets good reviews. Mine is due to arrive today. The coax will connect to the HDHOMERUN and feed out through my *wired* network (RJ45) connection. It has two tuners and will feed the signal to Microsoft Media Center (MMC) running on the kitchen laptop. MMC reportedly has a good DVR capability. I will then make use of my TV's DLNA capabilities to view the MMC DVR recordings. That's my plan at least. As I mentioned, I don't have it yet. Perhaps I'll update with my results. Anyway, that's it. Hope it helps you to reduce your cable bills and keep some decent functionality. I like the look of free TV. Oh, yeah. Try this antenna. You can't beat the price and performance easily.

Ordered the RCA ANT751 with the goal of dropping satellite service. Needed sufficient reception for local over-the-air channels to supplement our streaming services and roku/fire sticks. The short story is that we are very pleased with the cost, performance, and ease of installation. The satellite service has been cancelled. Most of the towers for our local channels are in the same general direction (within 14 degrees) and within several miles distance. We mounted this unit on the existing satellite dish (8 feet off the ground), pointed it toward the local towers, and picked up all of those channels. But that didn’t stop us from receiving most of the channels from the next nearest major city, 40 miles away and in almost the opposite direction. I’m in agreement with some other reviewers regarding wearing gloves when handling this antenna. Some of the edges are quite sharp and there seems to be a lot of dirt or dust. Our particular setup requires some additional equipment (such as a pre-amplifier). Read on if you are interested in the details… As I mentioned, we mounted this unit on the existing satellite dish. It was easy enough to point the antenna after loosening a couple of bolts. We used the TV Fool website to determine the direction of the nearest towers. The antenna didn’t seem entirely secured to the arm that extends from the dish using the provided u-bolt (meant to secure to the included mount). That was quickly remedied by adding additional u-bolts. We used WINEGARD DS-2002 U-Bolt Kit for WGDDS2000. We have 4 HDTV sets with cable runs from 25 to 75 feet from the antenna. Using the pre-existing cabling, the signal is split into 2 before it enters the house. The first run of cable is approximately 25 feet to the one TV on the near side of the house. The second run is split twice along the way to the other three TVs, which are all on the other side of the house. Upon connecting the antenna, we had a pretty weak signal that decreased along the way. When I disconnected the other 3 sets, I had a very strong signal to the near-side TV and picked up 46 channels. Adding the RCA TVPRAMP1R Preamplifier boosted the signal tremendously. The preamp is mounted at the antenna before the first splitter. The power supply for the preamp is at the near-side tv, with the coaxial carrying the power back to the preamp. This requires a splitter with power pass on the outside of the house. Luckily, the satellite provider had previously set us up with one. Since we are not using the antenna for radio reception, we have the FM filter turned on. Even after adding the preamp, the signal to the 4th (and furthest) TV was still a little on the weak side. Since I already had an antenna booster, I added the booster before the splitter that sends the signal to the 2nd TV and the 3rd TVs. Adding the booster improved the signal to all three TVs. However, there is still slightly noticeable signal loss to the 4th TV. The signal is split (for the third time) before the 3rd and 4th TVs. The third TV is smaller (15”) and much closer to the third splitter. I’m confident that the signal loss in the 4th TV will no longer be a problem after I add an antenna booster. The signal to that tv is just a little weaker than i'd like. Overall, we are ecstatic. We are receiving more channels than we expected, after expending relatively little effort. The total cost for the antenna and associated equipment is roughly what we were paying for one month of satellite service. Since we were already doing most of our watching using Netflix and Amazon Prime, the high cost of satellite no longer made sense. We are finding that our over-the-air channels are a nice complement to our streaming (using one Roku Stick and two Fire Sticks). The big sports fan is the family is getting by with the Sling TV service ($20 per month) and seems quite satisfied.

I think the ANT751 is a good, compact antenna and would work well in certain circumstances, but it ended up not being well suited to my circumstances, which are considerably less than ideal. Even though I'm only about 10 miles from most of the broadcasting stations here in the Seattle suburbs, I have the antenna in an attic crawlspace, there is a hill between me and the transmitters, and there are trees in the way. I originally bought the RCA ANT751 antenna because it's compact and well-regarded, but I ended up with multipath problems (go figure, given my circumstances). I decided to try the Antennas Direct DB4 with the thinking that a more robust, specialized UHF antenna might help, and it did. With the DB4, I have strong, rock-solid reception on the UHF channels now, even when the trees are blowing around in the winter. Like the ANT751, the DB4 is compact enough to fit easily in my attic. Note that all of the relevant UHF transmitters are in the same spot in Seattle, so I don't have the problem of having signals coming from different compass points. As the Antennas Direct DB4 is a UHF-only antenna, I still had the problem of VHF reception. I solved this by combining the RCA ANT751 with the Antennas Direct DB4 via a UHF-VHF combiner (a $5 part which I got from an electronics specialty store). The combiner strips the UHF signal from the RCA ANT751, leaving only the VHF signal (and strips the VHF signal from the DB4, if there was any), and sends the combined signal to my TV. This setup gave me the rock-solid UHF from the DB4 with the pretty good VHF from the ANT751, and as an added bonus I can point the ANT751 toward the most relevant VHF transmitter in my area to optimize that signal. The above setup served me well for VHF signals within the range of the ANT751, but eventually I decided that I wanted to access a VHF signal that was out of reach of the ANT751, so I replaced it with a longer, stronger dedicated yagi-style VHF-only antenna whose signal I combine with the DB4 as described above. It was much harder to fit this longer, wider antenna into the attic than was the case for the ANT751, but I eventually got it pointed right and I'm getting strong, reliable signals from all of the stations I care about in this market. Among my learnings - keep the antenna at least 3 feet away from electrical wires. There are electical cables in my attic that run along the attic floor, and I got better performance by mounting the ANT751 up and away from them. I do amplify the signal coming from the UHF-VHF combiner with the Motorola Signal Booster 484095-001-00 Bi-Directional RF Amplifier. I probably don't need it for the UHF portion of the signal from the DB4, which is pretty strong, but I definitely needed it for marginal VHF signals coming from the ANT751 before I swapped it out. I split the signal quite a few times inside the house, and the booster helps with that. Overall, I like the ANT751, but it wasn't ideal for my circumstances. If you have circumstances that are less prone to multipath, it might be a good choice for you.

OK let me start by saying I have studied antennas pretty extensively as a hobby. Living in Wisconsin, I am a die-hard Packers fan, and being a nursing student, cable is just too expensive for me. I started researching this antenna out of desperation because the antenna tower setup at my rental house is very outdated, and the cable connecting the antennas that are at the top of the 60ft tower is so thin, it looses an immense amount of signal. Anyway, I live about 36 miles from the Milwaukee towers, and about 50 from the Chicago towers. I already had the Antennacraft HBU33, which is an absolutely PHENOMENAL antenna if you are more then 40 miles from a tower (I have never used it for signals more the 50 miles away, so keep that in mind). This antenna (ANT751R, and make sure the "R" is at the end of the model number, as the model with the "R" is optimized for digital signal, as opposed to the older model which was more for analog signal) is designed for signals within the 40 mile range. I used my old antenna for Chicago stations, and bought this antenna for the Milwaukee stations. The setup works very well so far. I use both antennas with a signal combiner (a splitter that works both ways) and a RCA TVPRAMP1R for a pre-amp, and the picture so far is awesome. This antenna is so small, it seems like it would be ineffective, but WOW, its works like a champ! I will warn you that it does not pick up the lower VHF stations very well (2-6), so I had to modify it with coathangers to pick up those stations (Fox is channel 6 here, which a majority of Packer games are on). I did have to change the location of the antenna after not getting good reception on fox, even with adjustments with coathangers, to a higher place with fewer obstructions (the original place was clamped to the antenna tower as high as I could reach (which was about 10 ft up with a ladder), and was obstructed by the house next door, so your antenna may not have the low VHF issue, but I am not willing to take off my coathanger modification to find out if it works without it (if it ain't broke, don't fix it) in the new location. It is now on the roof of my porch, which is about 20 feet in the air. I also installed this antenna in the attic of my friend's 1 story house who is about 15 miles form the Milwaukee tower, and he reports perfect reception even without any sort of amp. Keep in mind that he was using a radio shack amplified set-top antenna before with a 15-20db amp built in, and on windy days, the reception would be choppy at best. He checked the reception on the day that the winds from hurricane Sandy were really bad in his area, and reported the signal was completely solid, so there you go. When installing this antenna, I would HIGHLY recommend using quad-shielded type f coax cable, to minimize signal loss. I would recommend purchasing the cable from monoprice, they were the lowest price when I installed my friend's antenna. Also, be careful with amplifiers, they can actually destroy your signal if your signal is already strong, so just keep that in mind. If you are at the very edge of the reception zone for this antenna, and your antenna is in a low place, or in your attic, then you may want to look into a pre-amp, otherwise, don't even bother. So to recap: This is a fantastic antenna that may not pick up the low VHF stations very well. I made a long loop with a coathanger and used hose clamps to attach them to the end of the VHF elements to get better low VHF signal, but that's just a suggestion. If you are putting the antenna up high, you may not have anything to worry about it. USE QUAD-SHIELDED TYPE F CABLE FOR YOUR SETUP TO MAXIMIZE GAIN AND MINIMIZE SIGNAL LOSS.

This antenna is working perfectly for me. I finally got sick of paying $100/month cable bills for a bunch of junk channels that I never watch. So after a bit of research, I went for this RCA antenna - there are instructions on the web for making your own antenna, but why waste time with that when you can get a beauty like this for $70? Installation was simple - just fold open the antenna, attach the cable connector, and you’re good to go. I chose to bolt it to the eave of my roof - the included rugged mount will accommodate other types of installations as well. Once you’ve got it installed (in Canada, don’t forget to visit tvfool.com to find out where you need to point your antenna) and you’ve connected it to your home’s cable connection, that’s it. Set your TV to "antenna" and you’re ready for FREE TV. I was shocked by the quality - the uncompressed digital signal provides a full HD signal that is absolutely crystal clear, much better than what you get with a paid cable connection. Of course, your results may vary - I’m in Stony Plain, AB, pretty far away from the signal towers, but it still works great. The number of channels you’ll get depends on your location - I get everything I need with CTV, CBC, GLOBAL, CITY TV, and OMNI (I also get CBC French and the Christian CTS channel, which I prompted deleted from my channel list). I suppose if you live in Toronto, you’ll probably get a lot more channels. Very happy with my 5 free crystal-clear HD channels - I highly recommend this antenna.

This Antenna is excellence, even better than the one that cost more than it. Very easy to installed, took me just under 15 minutes from removing the old and replace this antenna. I recommend who looking for a antenna should get this.

Excelente recepcion uhf y vhf . Facil de ensamblar e instalar. La instale sobre la chimenea y capto todos los canales disponibles en mi localidad. Altamente recomendable

This is a great antenna. I have tried several until now and after a couple of winters, I have to say it is the best that we had. I live in Brosssard QC in the B's and installed it on top of the shed (less than 10 feet high). Except ABC, we receive everything available in our region: 2.1, 3.1 to 3.6, 5.1, 5.3, 5.4, 6.1, 10.1,12.1, 15.1, 17.1, 24.1, 29.1, 31.1, 33.1 to 33.4, 35.1, 44.1 to 44.4, 47.1, 57.1 to 57.3, 62.1. It works with a Winegard lna 200 amplifier. It took 45 mins to assemble and mount; used the compass on my phone to set it in the direction indicated on tvfool.com. The channels are more than enough for our needs; as add-ons we have Netflix, Amazon prime and DAZN. Never cable again! Cheers.
