The dipole antenna works well. Good value for money.

Only needed one, but next time I took two packs. The antenna works as it should. Connected to the tuner in the closet. Good signal strength. The connectors on the antenna are quite high quality and durable.

Pros
  • Absolutely amazing!
Cons
  • Damaged

In the shape of the letter "T ". As it should!

Did you know that mice eat cables? I didn't do this until I stopped receiving FM stations through my stereo and realized my antenna had been eaten. Got rid of mice - with extreme prejudice. Bought to replace an old antenna. Works very well.

Pros
  • Robust design
Cons
  • Compatibility

Ideal for receiving weaker signals.

I bought 2 of these. One for the stereo, the other for the TV. TV reception has greatly improved! We now have dozens of free digital channels. Well, not entirely free, turns out to watch ads. Stereo receives 10 times more stations. Highly recommended.

Pros
  • Great price
Cons
  • Security

Well made, good reception

These are pretty standard antennas these days and this one does everything you need. I like these dipoles because they sense both horizontally and vertically. I can receive FM stations 45 to 60 miles away with little noise or interference with my Bose Wave radio.

Pros
  • Solid build
Cons
  • Contact seller

Bought to connect to a 1980's Onkyo receiver which a friend bought to replicate a 1970's stereo with turntable etc. It is exactly the same as the antennas I used for better FM stereo reception in the 70's and 80's. Reception. Good quality. Should last forever.

Pros
  • Excellent overall performance
Cons
  • Doubtful

Good choice Antennas

This is a good foldable dipole antenna for FM broadcasting. Stacked dipoles have an impedance of 300 ohms and a wider bandwidth than a 75 ohm dipole. You may need an adapter (75 ohms to 300 ohms) to use with your receiver. Depending on the receiver's antenna connection, you may also need a two-screw terminal block. If it is a push terminal antenna connection, you will need to purchase a terminal block to connect the spade lugs to the push terminal wires.

Pros
  • Quality construction
Cons
  • Requires base

Old Standby suitable for radio antennas

It is what it is - old technology. They used to come free with vintage audio gear at the time of purchase, and I'm glad they're still available with bare wires or spade terminals for vintage gear, as in my experience something like this has connections that aren't vintage compatible -Components. A dipole antenna will never reach far stations, after all the technology was developed for the heyday of FM broadcasting, but it does the job, like a rabbit ear antenna for analogue TV.

Pros
  • Slim design
Cons
  • Long delivery time

Old technology worked great

I have an old receiver and a jazz transmitter that I like very much, but it didn't really fit the antenna that came with the receiver (loop). I used to have an indoor amplified antenna but I wasn't happy with the performance so I decided to start with this dipole. I needed a balun to connect the wires to the receiver, but I already had one connecting the loop to the receiver. I then pinned it to the wall and WBGO appeared but reception was poor so I switched it to a nearby wall and the red…

Pros
  • cool product
Cons
  • Something different
