Review: and they said it couldn't be done - I live in the mountains surrounded by mature trees, i.e., trees much taller than my house which is built on the side of a mountain. My goal was to get ABC, CBS and NBC OTA with an attic mounted antenna. After going to the antenna websites, I learned the three major networks were transmitted from three different directions with the transmitters located 9, 24 and 14 miles away respectively. However, two of the transmitters are located on the other side of a mountain. I started out with Channel Master due to the name and reviews. They recommended their Pro-Model antenna with their adjustable gain preamp and gave very little guidance. One channel had a good picture, unfortunately the other two pixilated to the point of not being viewable. After exchanging emails with the Channel Master tech support, they said I was in a location where I could not achieve what I wanted with an attic mount antenna. So, I returned the Channel Master antenna/preamp and began my quest for a replacement attic mount antenna setup. I happened upon a promising attic mount antenna while surfing around reading reviews, so I went ahead and ordered the antenna from desertcart. After the order was placed, I stumbled upon the Antenna Man on YouTube. I decided to take a chance and pay the Antenna Man for his antenna recommendation and guidance. I provided the Antenna Man with all my info. The trusses in my attic are designed such that an antenna either needs to be compact or oriented in a NS or EW direction so my antenna choices were limited. The antenna I ordered would not have been the Antenna Man’s first choice, however the truss design limited my antenna choices. The Antenna Man told me exactly which direction to aim my antenna, in my case to a closer repeater rather the main transmitter (who knew?) and use a meter to find the best signal location. Since I am using an HDHomerun tuner, I purchased the Signal GH app, which was recommended by the Antenna Man, to find the ideal location in the attic. The antenna pulled in NBC and CBS with no problems, but I could not find a location which would satisfactorily pull in all three major networks. Back to the Antenna Man. He advised me on installing the Stellar Labs 30-2475 to pull in ABC and a combiner to bring the signals from each antenna to a signal coax cable to my HDHomerun tuner. Following his instructions and purchasing the equipment through his desertcart links, I am happy to say I now have the ability to watch all three major networks plus several other channels. For my situation, I can’t say enough of the performance of the Stellar Labs 30-2475. However, it would not have been possible to achieve the outcome I did without the Antenna Man’s guidance. It was worth every penny to pay for his service, and I spent less money for the two antennas and combiner than I did for the original Channel Master which did not work for me. Review: Quality built, works great even without a preamp! - Wow! Received earlier than expected. Got me my TV channels 7&11 (177 MHz & 201 MHz) in like gang busters without a pre amp. Even have the ant resting on wood supports in attic most likely compromising some gain but getting 75-80% signal quality!! This is a quality built antenna. I am a happy camper again. Only needed for these two high VHF stations, I have other antennas for UHF channels, different markets. I was using a ClearStream but it didn’t have the antenna elements for much VHF high gain at 177&201 MHz. Using a Televes Avant-X to manage 4 antennas. This VHF only antenna is my 4th. I am rural with good/ fair distance as reported by Rabbitears but signal degrades with spring/ summer tree leaves. Also have antennas in attic crawl space. Would do better mounted on roof but not putting holes in newer roof.

I live in the Poway area. I have it pointed at Mt. Solidad for ABC 10 and CBS 8. This antenna shouldn't help much with FOX 5 as that station is actually broadcasting on UHF 69.1. If you are picking up Fox in SD with this one, it is merely incidental. I also have an RCA pre-amp hooked up to mine and have combined it with a UHF antenna from the same manufacturer. **Q: how durable is this antenna?......** A: Depending on where you live. It didn't work for me living close to the mountains. I got the Winegard HD 8200 U and receiving stations 106 mil away. **Q: What diameter pole is required for this antenna?** A: Any pole up to 2 1/2 inches in diameter, It is a broad diameter clamp. The pole I have is 1 1/2 diameter at the top. JC **Q: How many TVs can you hook up to this antenna?** A: You can hook up one per antenna (as there is only one connector on the antenna...) however if you get a coax splitter you can hook up two or more TVs... these are relatively common... ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ and they said it couldn't be done *by R***K on August 17, 2022* I live in the mountains surrounded by mature trees, i.e., trees much taller than my house which is built on the side of a mountain.

This channel is at the low end of VHF-high. We are in Orange County (40+ miles from Mt Wilson) and the antenna is in the attic. None of the small flat antenna's worked really well. I tried a Clearstream 4, it struggled with ABC 7 (but was otherwise fantastic at pulling in UHF channels). So I thought I would try this antenna ... which is designed for VHF. Well it works absolutely fantastic. It brings in channel 7 with high signal strength and quality. This is despite at least 3 other not inexpensive options not working great. This antenna is the answer to problems with ABC 7 ... in my mind anyway. What is remarkable is that there is very little room in my attic. So I left off the front two dipoles (?) ... and that did not seem to be a problem. What is interesting. And perhaps I should have done more experiments. Is that I only get this really good performance if I place a Silicon Dust LTE filter in-line. Maybe there is interference up in my attic. Furthermore this antenna is not so great for UHF channels more generally. So for me this antenna is specializing in ABC 7, which is the main channel we watch due to Jeopardy. I am going to try and split the signal from this antenna and the clearstream UHF, to get the best of both worlds. But have not done these experiments yet. ## Frequently Bought Together - Stellar Labs 30-2475 - Fringe Directional Antenna VHF-Hi HDTV 174-230MHz - Antennas Direct UHF/VHF Indoor Outdoor TV Antenna Combiner – w/All-Weather Housing, Adjustable Mounting Hardware, EU385CF-1s (Black) - Antennas Direct 8-Element Bowtie UHF Outdoor HDTV Antenna, Multi-Directional, 70+ Mile Range, 4K 8K UHD NEXTGEN TV – w/All-Weather Mounting Hardware --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.us/products/21756729-stellar-labs-30-2475-fringe-directional-antenna-vhf-hi-hdtv](https://www.desertcart.us/products/21756729-stellar-labs-30-2475-fringe-directional-antenna-vhf-hi-hdtv) --- *Product available on Desertcart United States of America* *Store origin: US* *Last updated: 2026-07-11*
