I bought this cable cutter antenna from a cable company. At first glance, the quality did not convince me at all. . The materials are made of seemingly cheap plastic. It's a little wobbly. I don't think it will last long outside. However, I was very surprised by the strength of the signal. So I decided to install the antenna in the attic. I used an app on my phone to point the antenna in the right direction where free local HD channels are available. The antenna kit includes a motor, an external amplifier for signal amplification, a directional remote and a 50 foot coaxial cable. clear and straight. They are easy to read and understand. It came with cheap thumbscrews during assembly, which I doubt will stand up to the Texan heat. The amplifier allows you to add two connectors directly on the antenna. I could look for signals like an antenna on my TV. During the first scan, my TV found 43 channels. I adjusted the direction again and was able to get 88 channels. The reception of your antenna depends on several factors.1. The direction the antenna is pointing2. How powerful is your antenna (I can receive channels from other cities about 81 miles away)3. What is interfering with your antenna, e.g. B. other signals or stones etc.4. Available channels in your area. You can use the app to find out. The quality of the channels was in HD. Some channels were pixelated but fixed after re-direction. I've found that there are some trade-offs. Depending on the time and day, this affects the quality of the channel and the number of channels. It took several days to adjust the direction so that I could receive most of the channels during the day without moving the antenna. Now I have 78 channels that I'm happy with. Some of the channels included children's PBS, which had children's programs 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, which was very important to me. There are others like ABC, Charge, CBS, MeTV, Justice, TBN, Grit and many more. I also checked the antenna in my room. I installed it in the corner of my room and was able to get about the same number of channels. This would be good for those living or renting out apartments who cannot install the antenna outside or in the attic. I can save over $70 a month in additional costs I would have to pay to a local cable company. I would recommend this antenna to anyone looking to cut their cable. found that there are more benefits when you combine it with a media server like Plex. Plex is free for anyone who backs up their personal movies, music, and photos and stores them on a local drive on their computer. When you purchase a membership, you can use it anywhere in the world with Plex on Roku, Fire Stick, Android, View or listen to IOS and many more sticks. The app works so well that I can install Roku in our minivan and stream all our movies from home to my Vans LCD via hotspot on my phone. If you become a member, you can add a similar antenna through your TV tuner. There are many TV tuners. Some have one channel, two channels, four channels and more. This allows one or more viewers to watch the antenna and/or record up to a certain number of channels. Once you've added storage space to your computer, you can turn your media server into a DVR that you can use to record all your favorite live streams and save them as a movie in Plex. In addition to my purchase, I chose the SiliconDust HDHR5-4US HDHomeRun Connect Quatro 4 tuner. This allows four devices to be connected at the same time, or three viewers if I'm recording to a tuner, or four viewers if I'm not. I can even set up the DVR to record on three channels while watching another show. Integrating with an app like Plex also gives you a TV guide so you can catch everything that's on the air in a week's time.
