Review on Winegard FreeVision FV-30BB - Indoor/Outdoor Digital HDTV Antenna (4K Ultra-HD & ATSC 3.0 Ready) - 30 Mile Range High Performance HD TV Antenna by Rail Basri

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Works great near the subway

I use this in Arlington, VA. I was on a direct line with DC and Baltimore; There are a large number of transmitters within a 25 degree cone of my house. If it points this way, I get 70 channels. I get Fox, CBS and CW from DC and Baltimore. I replaced a directional antenna which didn't give me good reception on some DC channels (about 7 miles). Almost everything is perfect with this guy. For some reason, NBC is blurry at times even though it's more or less physically in the same place as the other network towers, but that's been the case with every antenna I've tried. I suspect there is something in the geography that poses a problem for this particular tower. It's strange that I get channels from Baltimore 35 miles away, but I'm having trouble with NBC from Washington! In any case, unless you're very, very far away, this will probably work better than a highly directional antenna. At less than $20, it's also a lot. The assembly and installation (mast mount for me) was easy.

Pros
  • Quality construction
Cons
  • Tape
