Works perfectly! - Accessories and consumables

I'm really impressed with this antenna. I bought the 25 mile set and it works great and many channels are in great HD quality. When I scanned I had about 20 channels. I lost a few channels when I mounted it, but those weren't the channels I cared about. I was able to catch major local stations (CBS, ABC, NBC, Fox) as well as many other stations including ION and PBS. I bought this because I'm going to shorten my cables and pay to stream, but I still need access to ABC Live. If you are in an area with good signal strength, try this inexpensive antenna. Use a site like TV Fool to get an idea of the signals in your area and how close you are to the towers. Setup was very easy. I just used the instructions in the box. It took me less than 10 minutes to setup and search channels. It is not recommended to install an antenna until you have scanned your TV to make sure it is receiving channels. If it doesn't collect much, you can move it to a better place and scan again. It comes with a pair of 3M strips and when you want to place and adjust it you can simply remove the antenna from the wall. It didn't ruin the paint on my wall when I took it off and fixed it. I would recommend this antenna for the price and since it comes with 16.5ft of coax cable you can do this if you need to mount it across from your TV in the room. Check one of these signal strength websites first to make sure you can receive channels and see if you should order one of the longer range ones.

Pros
  • Accessories and consumables
Cons
  • Big and chunky
