I purchased this antenna to replace a Mohu Sky 60 antenna after I discovered that Mohu no longer sells the Sky 60. I tried other antennas over the years, but the Sky 60 picked up a lot of channels. I finally decided to purchase the style of antenna like the PBD WA-2608. I wish I had purchased something like this a lot sooner. I am able to pick up a lot more channels without pixelization. The motorized antenna makes configuration easy. I mounted the antenna in an attic and it still picks up the farthest channels. This is a great antenna at a great price. The only customization was to reterminate the RG6 cable so that it wasn't so long. The only suggestion I have is to use better lag bolts. I snapped a couple of them while installing the mount. I was using an impact driver and I probably should have drilled the holes a little bigger. Other than that, the mount comes with everything you need for wood or brick mounting. Give this antenna a try if you are in an area thats difficult to receive OTA channels. Update 11/8/2024 I purchased a 2nd antenna for my apartment after being impressed with the first antenna's performance. To address an issue with the original review, the included lag bolts work well once the proper drill bit is used. I have tried several different antennas over the years hoping to get OTA channels at my apartment. The best antenna could get maybe three stations. After seeing how well the antenna worked at the first location, I decided to try another PBD antenna. I was only expecting slightly better results due to the limitations of the mounting location. I am on the bottom floor of an apartment building and on the wrong side of the building to properly point the antenna towards the TV station antenna locations. The antenna could only be mounted about 7 feet off the ground. The antenna's line-of-sight passes through the building which means the signal has to go through lots of building materials for multiple apartments. There is also a metal staircase and lots of trees. Basically, the worst case for attempting any antenna reception. I was hoping to get a few more channels or at least improve the reception of the channels I was getting with other antennas. After a channel scan, I was able to get just as many channels as the PBD antenna at the first location. All of the channels come in well without any reception issues. I am blown away that this antenna works so well after so many years of missing out on content due to the less than ideal mounting location. If you are looking for a relatively compact antenna with high performance, do not hesistate to buy this antenna. The manufacturer responds quickly and is available to help if there are any issues. The recommended mounting location with unobstructed line-of-sight and mounting height should be followed, but this antenna may surprise you if you have issues with mounting locations and have tried a bunch of other antennas.

Excellent

This PBD amplified outdoor antenna was easy to assemble and came with everything needed for installation, including a powered pre-amp integrated into the rotator controller. Initial setup took about fifteen minutes. Even without the pre-amp connected, I immediately went from receiving only a few weak channels with an indoor antenna to 17 usable channels. After connecting the pre-amp, that number increased to 35 channels. All major networks (ABC, CBS, NBC, FOX, CW) came in clearly, along with a number of additional sub-channels. Signal quality has been consistently strong, and the HD channels are sharp and stable. The rotator works well and is easy to use. A single button press rotates the antenna in one direction, and releasing and pressing again reverses direction, making it simple to fine-tune positioning. I’ve now been using this antenna long-term with no failures, despite some reviews reporting early issues. Based on my background as a former cable TV technician, I believe proper grounding plays a significant role in reliability. My installation is bonded to the home’s existing electrical ground using a copper grounding rod and ground clamp. Outdoor amplified antennas are much more susceptible to static and surge damage if they are not grounded correctly. As installed, this antenna has performed reliably and continues to deliver strong reception. If you’re installing an outdoor amplified antenna, taking the time to ground it properly is critical for both performance and longevity.

No good waste money buy from a tv or radio shop
