Review on ANTOP ANTENNA Amplified AT 800SBS OTA Ready by Chris Sweeton

Revainrating 1 out of 5

High hopes but 0 channels

My new 35 mile Winegard antenna works fine most of the time but this antop is 85 mile and should have solved my dropout problem. I tried it on the ground first, plugged directly into a TV, no splitters. 0 channels found. I later installed it on a 20 foot high roof pole. Again 0 channels. Yes, the green light on the Power Injector is on. After removing the power supply and a direct cable to the TV, the antenna found several channels without power. When power was restored, the signal on these channels went to 0. The transformer's power plug penetrated the injector very poorly (poor or cheap design), but it worked. I sent this unit back because it broke right out of the box.

Pros
  • Looking good
Cons
  • Some flaws
