Review on πŸ“Ί RCA ANT111E Non-Amplified Indoor Digital TV Antenna, Black - 40-Mile Range by Reid Rickerson

Revainrating 2 out of 5

Attention, this is 111F, not 112F, the comparison reception is bad.

I ordered this "identical" replacement for my broken cinch antenna. I bought my old one from the box store and it worked/works great. I broke one of the bunny ears which was still workable and had almost the same reception with just one ear but wanted to replace it anyway. The first thing I noticed when I took this item out of the box was that the bunny ears were only about 1/3 the length of my original device. My original RCA has bunny ears over 3 feet. For a long time. When connected to my kit, the old single ear antenna far outperformed this new device! Definitely disappointed. Upon closer inspection, I found that my old block is 112F and this new one is 111F. I had no idea they made 2 models of this particular antenna. I don't know if they removed the 112F with longer lugs or if it was reworked into the 121F, I just don't know. My broken unit is only a year old and searching for 112F brings up this 111F antenna which I am considering. Pay attention if you're like me and want to replace your trusty old RCA antenna with the same one. The only way to know what you have is by the serial number under the black stand. I am sending it back and will buy the 121F. The reviews say it has 3.5ft bunny ears so I'll give that a try.
