Long Range UHF- HDTV 91 Element Yagi Antenna

I live on the south shore of Long Island approx 40 miles east of New York City, and I just installed this antenna along with a Stellar Labs VHF antenna (Part # 30-2476 - which is necessary for channels 7, 11, and 13 in my area) & Stellar Labs Signal Combiner (Part # 33-2230), and overall I couldn't be happier! I installed them in my garage rafters, with this UHF positioned higher in the peak (which thankfully in my case runs east to west), and the VHF antenna resting on rafters approx 4 feet lower and 4 feet to the north. No amplifiers of any kind, but I did run all new Mediabridge Coaxial Cables from the antennas to the "signal joiner" and then to a single "two way" splitter feeding 2 Samsung LED TVs. Overall I'm amazed at how many channels are out there FREE OF CHARGE, including "sub channels" of the major networks I didn't even know existed . Not every one of them HD, as some of the sub channels are broadcasting older shows long before HD existed, but the vast majority are all HD and the picture quality is excellent. It's evidently a cleaner signal than I was getting from cable because cable companies evidently compress their signals to increase capacity while these are pure from the transmitting towers. I even pick up Channel 55 which is NorthEast of me, and that was a complete surprise because these are both "highly directional" antennas. One final comment - I'm only using Samsung TVs so I can't speak for all brands, but these TVs make it very easy to "edit" channels (remove those with marginal quality or language you don't understand) - and better yet - the Remote Controls have a "Guide" button which displays a complete TV Guide for all stations over the next 12 hours or so at the simple push of a button. Amazing! (at least to me). Guess I've been living a sheltered life, but that was a completely unexpected and wonderful surprise. All in all - Home Run!

I installed for an elderly friend that couldn't get internet inexpensively. Area was west of Banquete Tx, close to Rancho Banquete. The tower of the channel that I could not get was Low power and almost directly 35 miles due East in Corpus Christi, Texas. The majority of the other Major Networks were southeast about 15 to 19 miles. According to tvFool All of the signal is sent southeast from the tower in north corpus Christi that has DABL, so away from Banquete and at least 1 station should have been hi-VHF. This antenna picked up everything. I had an RCA with the 1 bowtie looking reflector and it worked good getting 41 channels including 2 duplicates. This Antenna pretty much the same price got 59 channels with the same duplicates. This was installed on a 5' pipe(to clear the rear reflector) stuck in a directv pipe on the bottom edge of the roof slope that's about 10' high so I'm guessing 15 to 17 feet. The land out there is flat and very, very windy. It's spring and winds of 20 to 30 are normal ALL DAY AND NIGHT from March to June, we'll see how it holds up. I have to say on the lower powered channels it is very sensitive to direction. On the channel DABL 29.3, if you were off by 15 degrees it would pixelate 20 it would freeze otherwise it was solid and stable. Everything was done barefoot with no amplifier. Seems well built for the price and looks like it would last a while. At this Price (NOT PRICE POINT) it's worth it to buy yearly IF needed. THIS antenna will outperform what you have now if all your towers are in one general direction. I highly recommend for rural areas.

My perspective of this is a written as a HAM radio operator and someone that builds my own TV antennas. First off, the summary of Pro's and Cons..... Pro's- -Great for those that live further than 40+ miles from transmitters or have trees or hills in the way. --Not much height needed to achieve a good signal as I am in a low area of NC and have trees all around me. - Good build and seems like it will hold up well during bad weather (ice, wind, etc) -Great gain factor (amplification) even without an amplifier. Cons: -Destructions (as I call instructions) are terrible. -Plastic that "could" easily break if you are not careful. Overall, this is a good antenna. I am located near Charlotte and my stations are only located 30 miles away, but I am in a valley and have many trees around me. I am picking them up with no issues. When I turned it, I was also able to to pickup another market that is 65 miles away. Mine is only mounted about 25ft off the ground and with a pre-amplifier and performs well. As others have mentions, the instructions are terrible if you have never put together an antenna before. Look at the box for a good illustration of "what goes where" when assembling it. If you take your time and have patience, this is a good value. Also, for other smaller antennas that advertise 100+ miles, this is not tru unless you have it on a tall tower. This one advertises 70 miles which IS realistic given the fact that I am getting channels 65 miles away with a pre-amp. keep in mind, this is a DIRECTIONAL antenna. You "may" get close stations off the side of it like I am, but your strongest signal will come from where you point the from end (elements towards target, "V" shaped reflector at the back of it. Will post a pic soon.

First tested this antenna locally and found 73 channels including two in the VHF range close to line-of-sight with transmitters less than 8 miles away to which the antenna was pointed. Majority of the UHF channels were received with the side lobs since the gain was more than sufficient. The actual purpose was to try it in a forest for receiving lower-bands LTE4 signals in the 600 - 700+ MHz range as alternative for ten times more expensive multi-band multi-channel specialized LTE4/G5 antenna with much lower gain in the frequency range of interest. Transmitters were behind two ridges about 40-50 miles away. It improved indeed significantly the reception for these lower-band LTE4 signals which were the only available in this area. And the signal came between the trees! This is not antenna for urban areas with a lot of reflections but is among the best for remote rural areas. At this price definitely worthy to try. If it works well make sure to use UV and water protective coating particularly over the plastic parts and suitable grease for the connector to protect it from rust.

I'm in a unique location and am able to pickup up Philadelphia stations from the Pocono mountain 75 miles away. This antenna, combined with a pre-amp has performed amazingly well. I combine it with a Nextgen ATSC 3.0 tuner in order to pickup ch6 which still broadcast on the vhf band.

I have tried two outdoor antennas before I bought this one. I tried an 8 bay antenna by DigiWave and the best UHF outdoor antenna by XremeRange sold by Top Notch antenna. This antenna outperformed either of those and was more economical to purchase. It pulled in local channel WTAE clearly while the previous two antennas did not pull it in. It is bigger than either of those and size does matter. The build quality is not as good as the previous two but if I need to replace it every few years it is worth it. This same antenna is really sold under three different names but Amazon has the best price with some selling at almost twice the price of this one. I live in a rural area with trees all around me and this antenna has enabled me to pull in 33 stations. Now this does not receive VHF signals but there are very few of those stations left on the air. One tip try to keep your cable run at 50 feet or less.

The antenna was not packaged properly, it was totally smashed when received. I tried to get a replacement, but for some reason Amazon didn't offer one, only a refund. It was only a mater of 4 days, but the same antenna was no longer available from Amazon by the same seller. Another seller was offered, but for a $25.00 price increase. No Thanks! I ended up ordering it from Walmart for the same original price, and this time is was packaged properly. The one star is for Amazon's experience. Now as far as the antenna is concerned, it gets 5 stars! After installing it and aligning it with my stations locations, it worked great. I installed it in my attic where I had a previous VHF antenna, but replaced it with this UHF antenna. If you are having any antenna reception problems go to the web site called "antennaman" This guy knows a lot about antennas, and I learned a lot.

I had no trouble assembling the antenna just had to straighten a few of the elements that were slightly bent. I live about 90 miles south west of the Houston transmission towers and get a watchable picture just before dark and with just a few dropouts during the night until generally around 8 to 9 am in the morning. after that time the picture drops in and out. Now the signal i am getting is from the high powered stations on uhf, distance is too far for the low powered stations. The picture is not as good with bad weather but on good days it is fine. I tried several other long range antennas and none of them got a watchable picture. My antenna is up at 30 feet with a clear view towards the Houston area and i am in the coastal plains so really flat ground and no tall obstructions in the way.

Hola escribo de mexico, instale la antena tva en mi domicilio, excelente producto canales que captaba con pixelaje e incluso canales que no captaba, ya los puedo captar sin problema, incluso con obstaculos su funcionamiento es optimo 5 estrellas.

This antenna had big boots to fill because I purchased it to replace a top-of-the line UHF antenna that I purchased many years ago, but has since aged due to wind. I put the new antenna on top of the mast and wow, 32 channels. For me, that's great, since I live in a deep-fringe remote area. So far, so good. Its a light antenna and easily handled by one person. I'm averaging up to 70 miles but occasionally, get a series of stations 95 miles away.

I absolutely love this antenna. I’m located in the north end of Barrie Ontario Canada and I can pull in 42 channels and when there is tropospheric ducting going on I can get up to 62 channels
