GE Attic Mount Digital TV Antenna, Longe Range, Out of Sight Compact Design, Supports 4K 1080P HD Smart TV VHF UHF, Mount Included for Attic or Outdoor, Weather Resistant, 33692

This product is fantastic. Like others indicated it assembles in about 15 minutes and installs about the same. Full disclosure it has been installed for less than 24 hours. I've not not a single drop in coverage other than from the NBC affiliate, which is 180-degrees from the pointed location. Everything has been rock solid and since we are in a cold snap I only expect improved performance in our normal warmer climate. I am in an area surrounded by dense foilage so RF performance is somewhat expected to be limited and I am pulling an average signal of 72 for all stations on a TiVo Bolt Tuner. I connected direct to my Panasonic Plasma, this has a slightly better tuner than TiVo Bolt, and my signal was in the low 80's for all the same networks. All told I received 52 digital channels. I will update the review once I get though all the weather out here I am interested to see if it holds up on rain fade under severe spring storms. Installation was quick and I was able to mount near the peak of my attic for approximately 18' - 21' above ground. The higher the better for an antenna. This design (multi dipoles) has been around since the 50's at least, RF hasn't changed other than what it carries, so the old school tech is probably still the best. I am no newbie to antennas, RF or HDTV. I received my first HD OTA signals in Loveland, CO from Denver, CO in 1999, that was about 56 miles away. I have since relocated to East Texas and I have grown yet again weary of the value from cable television. I needed a new antenna and first tried the generic RCA UHF loop indoor, since my transmitters are 12-21 miles away. I got 2 of the 4 majors and a bunch of shopping channels. It was about the same with the leaf-type antenna. Then I moved to a fan favorite with the model HD-8008, more channels, all majors yet horridly reliable reception with the included amplifier and without. My TiVo Bolt recordings were subject to much interference (pixilation) and drops in programming coverage. EDIT 1/6/18: This has been installed for a week now and I still have no signal fade issues! In checking signal levels at multiple times of day I remain at the same levels. I've watched recordings made to TiVo and still have no drops or blips in picture or audio. The images from OTA amaze me to this day, so are so crisp! EDIT 1/21/18: We had a cold snap and some precipitation which made some programs unwatchable. Blips and drops. I ordered the CM-7777 amp/filter, tuned and scanned. I picked up another dozen channels mostly shopping ones but, my signal is locked at 72 pretty much across the board. I though my picture was clean before, wow, the CM-7777 really cleaned it up, it’s like the actors and actresses are in the room with you visually. I made some tweaks to mounting in the previous couple of weeks without much effect. The pair of products is amazing, and they each can stand one their own.

This Attic Antenna is deceptively small and not comprised of very sturdy assembly parts, you wouldn't want it out of doors, but wow, what a difference it has made for me. I live in Waterbury CT on the side of a hill that faces Hartford but there are hills in between that are higher than mine. I'm also 30 some odd miles away. I was using a cheap platic square sheet antenna which, only in the Winter, would work (trees on properly) and would on rare occasions get in all the stations that this one gets, but would be choppy, in and out and many times not come in at all. On top of that, my TV tuning software doesn't store channels, every time you move the antenna, you have to totally rescan and the previous scan's channels are loost, it's a TLC TV. A bit of a hassle. I used my cell phone and an antenna app for aiming and assembled this antenna, and hooked it with my existing el cheapo amp and wow. The Hartford stations come in when aimed at this, with 4 or 5 stars on my TV signal power, and the New Haven and other closer stations come in when aimed for Hartford also, I get CBS, NBC, FOX, ABC, PBS and two others. I haven't played with aiming it at NYC yet though I doubt it will work, but my oh my what an improvement over the cheap plastic square Window Antenna. Only wish it was a sturdier design, it comes in a very small box and you assemble everything, there are more parts than you might expect from the photos. I'm very pleased, even if, so far, I don't get in far away Boston. It's been a few days now and the signal is still strong and stations not in the patch do come in enough for me to be quite usable. The plastic side arms that hold the reflector bars and VHF loop are in 4 pieces, 2 pieces for each side and that is what I think is the most flimsy part, how they snap together, and why I would not put this outside. But it's perfectly adequate for an attic and the mounting L-Bar will rotate 90 degrees for side long mounting and comes with wood screws. The TINY TINY screws that mount the UHF Loops and the nuts and washers for the VHF loop are another flimsy aspect, 4 of them don't use nuts but self thread in the plastic nose of the assembly. I will say that, regardless of the flimsy nature of this, comparing this to one of those plastic sheet antennas is night and day difference and even in a living room you might be able to hide this well enough to use it, even though it isn't big it's quite effective. AS I say, I live where hills are in the way and I get in good signals. If no signal is there, of course, nothing will work, but don't give up if you are using rabbit ears or a little pastic square antenna and things are too edgy, now, of course, this won't do what a better outdoor antenna would do, but the price is so affordable and the performance is so good this is probably something I recommend even more than things I have given great ratings before. I am very pleased. I will check in once I get a way to try other directions to see what else I can pull in, but right now I get enough to be darned happy, but don't have expectations of Boston or NYC, if I DO ever pull those in then I'll be sure to tell you!

Very disappointed in this product. When it arrived it was in a plastic bag; all small bolts (hardware) were loose in the large bag. Two of the antenna arms were bent, one of the support (plastic arcs that hold the straight antenna pieces) was broken. Could not download the instruction icon in the direction package and the directions themselves where absolutely ridiculous. Do to the need I am going to use it, more info to follow once hooked up. Who knows, perhaps it will work! After installation and use, I have to admit that it does work quite well. I was having difficulties receiving channel 5 with old antenna, this one gets reception quite well. I am changing my numerical review from a 1 to a 4; All parts were in package even though it had been opened, and reception is quite good.

Seems to be doing the trick so far I have tried quite a few in the past so fingers crossed

Réception de la tv numerique locale excellente. De plus je peux capter des stations (des USA) à plus de 70 kilomètres de chez moi. J'ai installé l'antenne sur un manche à peinturer télescopique qui sert à peinturer le plafond. C'est pour une utilisation temporaire lors de panne électrique et de câble distribution tv. L'antenne est facile à installer rapidement. Il y a un bon tutoriel sur YouTube. Le prix est abordable et le résultat est excellent.

Excelente antena exterior, tiene alto rango de recepción y a un buen precio.

Had another antenna installed outside and was not sure if this one would be better. This antenna provides a much better reception but needs to be installed in the attic as it is flemsy. It needs to be protected from environment. Got it on sale and very happy I tried this first than going for a booster.

La verdad la compré por ser de la marca GE, pero me decepcionó. La quería cambiar por mi antena vieja y resulta que mi antena vieja capta más canales que esta antena, la cual no captó más que 5 canales de los 17 canales que se deben recepcionar. Es muy cara y la tuve que devolver...
