Review on ๐Ÿ“ก Enhanced RCA Outdoor Yagi Satellite HD Antenna - 70 Mile Range, Attic or Roof Mount, Long Range Digital OTA Antenna for Clear 4K 1080P Reception by Joel Wright

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Put it in a strong steel bank vault, I bet you'll get a signal.

It has a stronger signal than the ClearStream 4V in the application I'm using it for. I put this antenna in the worst possible situation: - There isn't a hill there, it's literally a mountain between my house and the transmission towers. The towers are 22 miles away, but with a mountain in between, even the ClearStream 4V has signal issues at times and costs three times as much. so. - My location gets exactly 0 channels with EVERY indoor antenna I've tried. - My HOA rules require no antennas to be visible, so not on my roof. I wanted to refer to and fight the FCC rules, but I tried first. The antenna is about 4 feet off the ground and surrounded by walls, and there are also many large trees in the area. See photo. I have not strengthened the antenna and made no modifications. I happen to be using coax cables lying around, I have no idea how the shielding works. Here's how it works: Every local channel has a signal strength of over 70%, and it's clear with no hiccups. Works very well on UHF. and VHF. NBC is hard to get in the Phoenix area with any antenna I've had. This is my strongest channel. Somehow I'm getting 45% signal strength on the Tucson channels 112 miles away. Again, this is 4 feet off the ground and surrounded by walls! The Tucson channels look great with no hiccups or breaks. The signal can be affected by a storm. When ClearStream 4V was installed in the same location, NBC's signal strength at 22 miles was 40%. This antenna is 1/3 the price and offers the best signal strength with channels 112 miles away! I had my doubts. I've seen all these people install it on their rooftops, live next to TV towers, rave about the antenna. If I hadn't put this thing in a strong steel bank vault and tried to watch TV I couldn't have put this antenna in a worse situation and it worked. You have to buy it.
