This gave me over 20 stations, 8 of which are not available on my satellite dish or from my one available cable company. IT WAS HOOKED UP AND LOADEDWITHIN 10 MINUTES OR LESS. IT IS HEAVY, NOT FLIMSY AND CHEAP, AND IT IS NOT NEAR A WINDOW - IT IS INSIDE MY ENTERTAINMENT CENTER ACROSS THE ROOM. MY ONLY CONCERN IS THE MANETIC PORTION. DOES IT EECT DVRS? DOES IT AFECT ANY O MY OTHER TECH IN THE ENTERTAINMENT CENTER - I JUST DON'T KNOW AND WAS CAREUL TO PUT IT IN THE BOTTOM O THE EC SO IT WASNT NEAR ANYTHIN IT COULD DESTROY. I REALLY WISH THE MANETIC PORTION WAS A REMOALE BOTTOM OR A REPLACEABLE BOTTOM SO I WOULD NOT HAVE TO WORRY. THESE DAYS THERE IS TOO MUCH TECH ALL OVER THE PLACE AND CLOSE TO EACHOTHER THAT INDIN A PLACE WHERE YOU CAN HAVE A REALLY SUPER STRON MANET IS ALMOST IMPOSSIBLE.
BESIDES THE FACT THAT IT WORKS GREAT, I WAS ABLE TO 'BEST' OR 'ONE UP' OR 'BEAT' MY CABLE/INTERNET COMPANY WHICH IS A RARE FEAT. AND TRULY ALMOST IMPOSSIBLE THESE DAYS. USUALLY YOUR CITY PICKS WHAT COMPANY WILL CARRY YOUR PHONE, CABLE, INTERNET, POWER, WATER, GARBAGE, ETC. AND THE CONTRACT GOES TO THE SAME COMPANY EVERY YEAR WITH NO CONCERN FOR THE PRICES OR THE SERVICE OR THE QUALITY. EVERY SINGLE AREA NAMED IS ONE COMPANY WITH A COMPLETE MONOPOLY, GIVING YOU NO CHOICE AND GIVING THEM NO REASONS TO KEEP THE COSTS DOWN AND THE QUALITY UP. SO BEATING THE DREADED COMCAST WITH A $10 ANTENNA MADE MY DAY BRIGHT AND BEAUTIFUL. I STILL NEED INTERNET SO THEY CAN ALWAYS CONTINUE TO BLEED MY WALLET DRY FOR INTERNET WHILE HAVING HUGE PORTIONS OF THE DAY/NIGHT WHERE YOUR INTERNET DROPS OUT CONSTANTLY-- BUT BETWEEN SATELLITE AND THIS ANTENNA, I HAVE NOW FREED MYSELF FROM THE TENTACLES OF CABLE TV FOREVER. OH IF ONLY I COULD GET INTERNET ROM SOMEONE OTHER THAN COMCAST OR ATT...
Recently COMCAST 'upraded', GIVING ME worse and more expensive service. we used to have cable on one tv, solely because it costs less to have internet with cable on one tv than internet alone ($20 less) so we had it to decrease our bill. 2 years ago THEY made the lowest package 6-10 stations DEPENDIN ON THE DAY instead of 25+ -makin it even more worthless, but still cheaper than internet alone.
Now, the upgrade requires a cable box to get any stations at all, making it more expensive than internet alone - AND MY THEORYON COMCAST IS "NOT A PENNY MORE" but I liked having a tv with something on it that was not linked to my satellite. I have bought numerous antennas for hurricane season, in order to get at least one station or news, to no avail. They have all been worthless pieces of junk. SO I was leery o wasting another $10. NOW I AM GETTING 2 MORE SO I CAN GET TV STATIONS THROUGH DVD PLAYERS THAT ARE HOOKED UP THE THE TVS NON-DVR/SATELLITE CONNECTIONS, ALLOWIN ME TO WATCH OR RECORD STATIONS IN ADDITION TO WHAT IS RECORDIN ON MY DVRS, SO I NEVER HAVE TO CHOOSE TO GIVE UP A SHOW DURINGG THOSE FEW PRIMETIME HOURS WHEN THERE ARE MORE SHOWS THAN DVR CONNECTIONS.
FREAKIN AWESOME!!!!!!!

P.S. lasciate perdere i modelli amplificati tramite USB che nel mio caso erano peggiorativi e tra i modelli passivi è la migliore, provate molte anche di costo e ingombro superiore con risultati al massimo analoghi... Da valutare anche il modello ancora più piccolo DTA180 acquistato per una casa di campagna, anche questa magnetica ma obbligatoriamente da attaccare a una superficie metallica per farla funzionare correttamente dato che utilizza l'oggetto di ferro come superfice di ricezione. Nel caso vedere l'altra mia recensione 🙂
