Review on πŸ“Ί Winegard FlatWave Air FL6550A: Ultimate 60 Mile Range Amplified Digital Outdoor HDTV Antenna by Alan Singh

Revainrating 1 out of 5

Easy to install, compact, powerful in the attic, very good amplifier inside.

I get a very reliable 60 mile low powered station that has a specific sub channel that I like about 20 degrees from where it is pointing so I always nor any other tower stations scattered around my area, even the station actually 30 miles behind the antenna. This is happening in my attic, not outside what I thought I had to do. It's hard to ask for more as it picks up on everything Antennaweb predicts, no matter the direction. It comes with a good low-noise amplifier and that seems to be the case with good long-distance reception in such a small package. It would be nice to note that it doesn't have a low frequency VHF element (HF channels 2-6), but there aren't any stations in my area that broadcast those channels. I have several channels in the high frequency VHF band and it works great on them. I recommend everyone to check the antenna for HF and not virtual channels broadcasting in their area to make sure they don't have anything on the low VHF frequencies before buying.

Pros
  • Good product for the price
Cons
  • A bit torn
