Worth the second purchase

This was my second purchase of this model. The original lasted a long time, then one of the antennas broke when moving the device. You'll have to move the device around the room during a storm, but hey, those are bunny ears. Here's what you should do if your TV reception is bunny ears.

Pros
  • Elegant design
Cons
  • No instructions

Works great.

A few years ago I cut the cable but missed the opportunity to tune in to a live newscast. I bought one of these from a local store and hooked it up to my Revain Fire TV and was amazed at how many channels I got. I have tried these flat antennas before with minimal success. I have since bought additional devices to use on another Revain TV and an older Sony model and am able to enjoy live TV again.

Pros
  • Everything is fine!
Cons
  • Minor issues

Do not buy Very cheaply made

I had only received 12pm at 3pm yesterday afternoon. I hooked it up in the evening after trying many times to get channels that were nothing but the antenna I had. My antenna is already broken, I'm just trying to rotate it and find the "sweet spot". I had it as close to the window as possible, which means it was on the windowsill. I will never repeat, never buy any of these RCA items again. I don't even want another one if they offer to replace it.

Pros
  • Weight
Cons
  • I vaguely remember

Picky as he sits. I want to lean back!

Terrible picture right after the perfect TV! You have to be patient with that. But keep in mind that it's the only one on the market, it's the best on the market. Does not work with amphorae. You give more power. Don't buy amps. The button works fine for a while. Patience. I'm holding on There is no choice, nobody has a better one. Remember, look at the back, install it, look at the picture. Pay attention to what kind of antenna I have, it matters how it works. It is strange. If you reversed…

Pros
  • Good product for the price
Cons
  • Ugly packaging

Works great in my village. Very satisfied.

Today I received this antenna. I have an old RCA similar to this one so I crossed my fingers and ordered this one hoping it would be satisfactory until I could afford a better one. It does exactly the same thing as my old one. I live over 80 miles from the nearest TV station and over 50 miles from the nearest TV tower. It took less than 5 minutes to find the right place to mount the antenna. (Behind him. Not even in an awkward spot.) I get 14 channels, all very clear, with clear sound. Very…

Pros
  • Makes you happy
Cons
  • Repair

SAVE WITH BUNNY EARS -- Free TV --

TV in two bedrooms was unplugged -- no longer used -- so I bought these bunny ears for my room -- and also planned a small analog box a a long time - hooked up - got 29 channels - and of those 4 or so movie channels - old movies i like - reception and color are fine - was actually tempted to return satellite to broadcasters - -- sorry ARE CABLE COMPANIES SO GREEDY NOW -- but it's something hopefully everyone can afford - I kept the satellite but for some reason I'm only missing TURNER'S CLASSIC

Pros
  • Nice to use
Cons
  • Has flaws

This antenna is amazing! I have a rather old small flat screen.

This antenna is amazing! I have a fairly old small flat screen TV that has been neglected and abused. I used multiple antennas as this TV does not connect to my satellite dish. Anyway, I saw this one on Amazon and it sounded really good and was very affordable. Well I was right! My little blurry picture is in HD now and the sound is amazing too. I'm not a techie, but now it sounds like surround sound. Also, no additional power cord is required. You just plug a cable into the back of your TV and

Pros
  • An absolute legend
Cons
  • I won't say anything

Inexpensive terrestrial antenna

To be honest I only chose this antenna to try the HD terrestrial antenna. We're about 25 miles from the nearest transmitter in Houston, so we're in a very flat part of the world, but we're not close to the source. And I installed it in the middle of our living room on the first floor, near the middle of our brick house. I don't know where it's best placed. but I didn't have much of a choice given the layout of our house. So far the best I've been able to do is get one channel good and a few…

Pros
  • Free for educational purposes
Cons
  • I will add later

RCA never falls off. To improve more than 50 channels

I have always bought RCA antennas and this model seems to be the best. Remember that location is key, as well as the type of home you have and the age of construction. Sometimes older buildings have a lot more material than today's buildings. Note that after approximately 70 miles, the TV tower's transmit signal may drop due to the natural curvature of the earth and weather conditions may also play a role. Also note that this is not an HD antenna, they are selling you a gimmick. What works for…

Pros
  • Few competitors
Cons
  • Frequency
