It didn't work any better then the one I bought from Radio Shack. I turned it every way but out and still got the same 6 channels. I should be able to get at least 12.OH WELL
I was able to follow its instructions without frustration, and it did its job scanning and memorizing channels without hurting me. I bought this antenna for its aesthetics. Will it please everyone. I found the shape of it very convenient and, well, beautiful. Since machines so often don't work well and take up more and more of our time as we serve their needs, why not at least have something that looks good. I doubt it, but I do live in an area with problem reception and have no complaints in that regard. I honestly can't think of anything negative to say about this particular plastic and silicon divinity.
I live in SF near Sutro Tower and am able to pick up all the locally broadcast stations (the tower is about a mile from my house) in my somewhat obstructed apartment. When I want to watch NBC (go Chargers). I cannot, however, get NBC which is broadcast 40 miles to the south in San Jose. Still, I like this antenna because it hangs on my wall behind the TV and you really don't see it. I pull out my Terk HDTVa antenna which has better reception but is quite big, especially with the "ears" up. Anyway, if your transmitting tower is not to far and you're going for a muted look I would recommend the RCA 1500.
This antenna definitely looks better sitting on top of my entertainment center than my old rabbit ears. Unfortunately the reception is no better.
Seemed like a great match for my new TV, but I can only receive one station in spite of moving the antenna around in my office. I tried the location where my old TV received all the stations I wanted, plus more, so the room itself is good for reception. I was hoping for an easy and quick match.
