Good reception at a good price.

While I don't pick up any extra channels than other products I've tried, I do get much better overall reception on the ones I do.The ability to fine tune from inside my house is the biggest advantage to me. I have it mounted to my patio utility cabinet as I live in an apartment. Not allowed to permanently mount. It is a bit flimsy but the wind doesn't mess with my broadcasts. For the money, great antenna.

Lightweight with good features

It is easy to use but only brings in the same station I got on a 150 mile antenna. The good thing about is you can turn the antenna to where the station comes the best. I would have thought 990 mile antenna would bring the stations better and more of them. For the price it is okay.Read full review...

Doesn't work.

This antennae had to be rotated every time you changed channels. I have 33 channels in the area I am in , this antennae only picked up 5. Also you have to put the rotational controller outside with the antennae because the cable end is old school slide in not type "F". This means you have no options to install the controller in home and use the remote to control it. I am within 200 miles of Dallas/Ft. Worth and picked up zero channels from there. I returned this antennae and will try a new one.Read full review...

Better value than I expected. So I'm buying it more than once.

I didn't believe the "990 Mile" range claim of this antenna. But since I found it listed for a cheap price, I thought I would take a chance on it. And surprisingly enough, I went from getting no reception at my house, to 16 channels. Not too shabby for the middle of nowhere.

Easier to assemble, and more affordable than a GE antenna I made the mistake of buying first. More range than I thought was possible for my location. And the added bonus of a push-button adjustment. So I don't have to climb up and fix its orientation. I went from one to buying two more. Because that, for me, was the most cost effective way to hook up all the TVs I want throughout the house.

I highly recommend this if the price and features look attractive to you.

Easy to setup

Easy to install
Very little assembly
I like that it's Very simple structure just a straight plastic bar about 18 inches or so not many small parts
Performance is about the same as any other antenna like this I've had several types they all seem to get the same amount of channels. It would probably perform better if it had better quality coax cable.Read full review...

Doesn't fit.

It's to small to fit my antenna pole. It was made to fit a 1- 1/2" but it doesn't tell you that. It doesn't fit my cable connection. It's a push in type like a dvr would use. My male cable connection is a screw in type and they don't give you any adapter. Poor engineering and research.Read full review...

Not 900 Mile antenna, but a good 45 mile antenna

Not 900 Mile antenna, but a good 45 mile antenna.

PROs:
1) Easy to install
2) Cheap
3) Able to orient antenna without climbing (after install is over)

CONs:
1) uses RG58 coaxial cable (not FG6)
3) Uses PAL (similar to RCA but not quiet) connector from antenna to control/amp box instead of standard F connector.
2) documentation is practically none existent...what is included does not help with installation or with setting up or use of antenna.

Would I recommend: yes, if you are within 30 to 45 miles of TV towers.and able to mount the hardware.

Bottom line: it's good for what I bought it for and most every station within 45 miles is received with good/decent picture quality.

Needed a longer cable

Overall this is a great antenna for the money, but it has one drawback. The cable wire from the antenna is approximately 25 feet long. It has a non standard coaxial end, as does the unit it plugs into. If you need to add any additional cable length, your out of luck.That limits where you can install it Read full review...

Lightweight with low streamline features.

This is a great modern looking antenna at a great price and fast free shipping.

Nice light antenna

smooth rotation, easy to setup,
990-mile range is grossly exaggerated (Maybe possible from space)
receives local broadcast well (under 50 miles)
Not a deep fringe element
