Review on ๐Ÿ“บ Antennas Direct VHF Kit - Enhance Your TV Antenna with VHF Capability (Channels 7-13) - Indoor/Attic/Outdoor - Includes 3 ft. Coaxial Cable - VHF-1 by Brian Cooper

Revainrating 5 out of 5

MUCH better than I expected

I had my doubts as to whether it was worth it as it is a simple dipole with no reflector/directors. But I'm impressed. I originally bought it to improve the signal from the local PBS affiliate, Channel 11; Your transmitter is 31 miles away. The signal has transitioned from random blocking and audio dropouts to permanent. And a huge surprise last weekend: With the FCC repackaging, the Boston broadcaster PBS switched from UHF to VHF - channel 5 (low VHF). It's a pretty small antenna for low VHF but after switching I get this station with 93% signal strength and this tower is 38 miles away. Definitely worth the money.
