Five Star Outdoor Digital Amplified HDTV Antenna - up to 200 Mile Long Range,Directional 360 Degree Rotation,HD 4K 1080P FM, Supports 5 TVs Plus Installation Kit and Mounting Pole

Easy assembly, easy installation and great reception. I mounted mine in the attic and couldn’t be happier with my selection. Antenna rotates a full 360 but I haven’t had to use that feature because I get the channels with aiming in one general direction. I guess I could get more channels from other cities if I wanted but I’m content with the local transmissions. I get 70 channels. I recommend.

I really like this antenna. If you can get it high enough, and aimed in the right direction, it works very well. We are 60 miles from the towers and get the signals just fine. The only exception is on bad weather days. But that's the signal, not the antenna. Contrary to other reviews: Directions ARE INCLUDED in the form of a link printed on the box for a youtube installation video, also printed info inside the box. If you need anymore than that, you should not be installing anything ever. Take the short bus to happy town.

This was easy to assemble. Though, The mount was missing 2 screws. Luckily, we had similar screws in our tool box. Still, this should not be a thing. Everything should come with this Antenna, and maybe an extra part. The instructions showed that there should be 4 mounting screws, yet there was only 2. That is why I gave them 4 Stars, otherwise it would be 5. I bought this for my grandma, to get reception in her bedroom. She only wants Antenna channels. She is old school. She use no internet or smart phone. She lives a ravine, so she needed a good one. We set it up, and then plugged everything in. I pointed where the antenna was to get a good reception. When I click the power on the remote, it gave a little vibrate. I go outside, I saw that the antenna moved for better reception. My Grandma got over 100 channels, and the one she wanted, good picture. Fit in the right place. Good cable quality.

I’m very disappointed in this antenna. I replaced an older and smaller outdoor antenna which is about 10 feet above my roofline and thought I would get a much better signal but I do not. First of all, this absolutely does not rotate, which is how it is advertised. It doesn’t have a motor and no power source to the top of the antenna so I don’t see how it could be expected to rotate. The light to the controller does light up when it’s pushed, but the antenna does not rotate. Second, while I do get about double the channels I used to get, very few come in completely clear of static all of the time. I used to be able to get 2-3 of my 4 area network stations crystal clear, but now all stations have some level of static. I’ve manually rotated the antenna many times since I put it up, but with limited success and still some, or lots, of static on almost every channel. I gave this 1 star because it does pick up many more stations, but most are stations I don’t have any interest in watching. I will probably put my old antenna back up just to get the few stations I was getting clearly before.

I am thoroughly impressed with this antenna. After testing it back-to-back against another popular amplified model, this one was the clear winner by a huge margin. My Setup: To provide context, my setup is challenging. The antenna is mounted on the roof of a three-story commercial building and it's connected via a very long 150-foot run of RG11 coaxial cable. The Test & Results: I was initially hesitant because the specs on the box focus on UHF, and my area has important channels in the High-VHF band. However, I decided to test it against an antenna that explicitly advertised VHF performance. In a direct, same-day comparison, this Five Star antenna pulled in an amazing 93 channels! This included every single local network on both UHF and VHF, all with perfect picture quality. To boot, I was doing this during a thunderstorm! For comparison, the other antenna (ANTAN AN-5013ORV) could only find 71 channels in the same exact spot. This Five Star antenna outperformed it by more than 20 channels. Conclusion: The built-in amplifier is clearly very powerful and has a low noise figure, easily overcoming the significant signal loss from my long cable run. If you have a challenging installation and need a powerful, reliable antenna, I can't recommend this one enough. It performs far better than its specs might suggest.

I mounted the antenna approximately 30 feet above the ground for my best line of sight opportunity towards local network stations. This was most important. I used online station locating websites per my home address. All stations were between 40 to 50 miles in distance and 95 percent of them were very close in pointing azimuth. The motor worked as advertised making and testing directional movements. There are many variables to consider in what is actually physically possible with distance with reception claims. The actual network broadcast stations vary in design (not all equal) with favorable frequency assignments and broadcast FCC power outputs. This is a variable that may limit the best quality of signal especially during sunset times and of course poor weather conditions if beyond 40 miles in range. With all considered for my location and line of sight performance I would suggest a more modest max distance rating of 45 miles in expectations especially if you’re looking for 100 percent reception 24 hours a day. Overall I believe the antenna is preforming good with my installation on major network towers. Bottomline a realistic outdoor antenna average performance rating in my opinion. As always a good opportunity to research radio frequency antenna fundamentals with your local environmental variables to set your expectations.

Works very well for my local channels. I found it very simple to assemble, did use the video. Nice to have the rotation to fine tune. You have multi mount choices with mounting hardware makes it easy.

Antenna worked great for about 2 months. Now it randomly turns on its own so it is useless. Just as you get it aimed the right direction by morning it's facing the opposite way. You can watch it happen. No it's not the wind and it's tight. The green light even comes on for the control box. Would not buy again. Would get 5 stars from me but this issue makes it worthless. Updated - seller reached out and offered to refund the money. Maybe I just got a defective antenna. Not their fault.
