GE Outdoor/Attic Mount Amplified TV Antenna, Long Range, Supports 4K 1080P VHF UHF, 60 Mile Range, Amplifier Signal Booster, Digital HDTV Antenna, 34560

We ditched the dish for a Smart TV, but wanted a way to bring in the network channels. However, our cabin is over 50 miles away from the nearest television stations with two valleys and two mountain ridges in between. I tried a couple of those indoor antennas that claimed they could pick up 250+ miles away...and you can guess how that went. So this product was my last ditch effort. I tried it indoors first, hoping for an attic installation, but, with our metal roof, we got zip. So, I took it outdoors and plugged it into the coaxial cable on our old satellite dish, which is mounted on a post at the edge of our yard. That dish is only about 5' off the ground, and tucked in among some trees, and behind our campers - so, I wasn't expecting much. But despite this placement, it worked! The scan indicated that it picked up 15 channels. The reality was that it picked up 9 channels, seven of which are perfectly clear. That works for us! What a pleasant treat to have something work well right out of the box with little fuss. UPDATE: As mentioned in my previous review, I installed this antenna on an existing satellite dish which wasn't in the most optimal position. So I decided to try it on it's own on a higher pole, hoping to bring in the PBS stations and clear up one of the network stations that was coming in a little spotty now and then. Fortunately I already had materials laying around for the project. But after I mounted it on the new pole and rescanned for channels, the TV only picked up 7 channels, with just one that would come in clearly! Obviously, our old dish aids in the reception for this antenna. So, I took it down and assembled it the way I had it previously, and got everything back the way it was. Just glad I didn't buy materials specifically for this project, as I would have been disappointed.

Our new home is very energy efficient with a foil lined roof and double pane tinted windows. Our panel antenna didn't work well and pixelated badly, and the towers are less than 10 miles away. I bought this antenna and it brought in channels from neighboring cities, while failing to bring in any VHF channels. That was an oversight on my part as several of our stations still broadcast on VHF. I added a VHF retrofit kit, mounted both antennas outside under the eaves and I now have 73 crystal clear channels. Its not unsightly under the eaves and works very well.

I’ve purchased 3 or 4 of the digital antennas, and this one has the best reception so far. It does’t hang in the window, so not the quite the same. I was getting poor reception on several channels from LA, when I switched to this antenna I have great reception on all channels.

This antenna did not work well at all. It got only 2 channels and they were local. My rabbit ears antenna gets 12 channels and it is inside the room the tv is in. However I had purchased a GE ULTRAPRO HOVER HD AMPLIFIED ANTENNA 55 MILE RANGE AND PUT IT INTO MY ATTIC PRIOR TO GETTING THIS ONE. Because it gave me 44 channels is why I bought this one 60 MILE OUTDOOR OR ATTIC MOUNT ANTENNA to put outside but it would not work outside or in my attic. So I sent it back for a refund and bought 2 more GE ULTRAPRO HOVER HD ANTENNAS AND WILL FIX ONE TO MOUNT OUTSIDE ON A ROTATOR TO HAVE A VERY GOOD OUTDOOR ANTENNA THAT WORKS.

I have bought several of these. Mounted high in an attic or on a chimney can get you a lot of great reception. Best antenna I have ever had.

I had one of these antennas in my last home, I don't believe it was a GE product but the same design (guessing GE bought the copyright). In our last home I simply removed an old TV satellite from it's bracket, hooked up the new antenna, connected the cable, added the signal booster before connecting to the TV and it got great reception. My newer installation was a little trickier, according to a couple websites that tell you what channels you can pick up, they said at best I could hope to pick up one channel. We are in very hilly terrain without line of sight to the broadcasting towers (which are 28 miles away). One channel was acceptable given we are in a remote location. We have satellite internet which, we use to stream Sling and Hulu but had no local channels for news. The antenna arrived yesterday and I quickly hooked it up to a cable I routed to our basement and left the antenna sitting on our deck rail. After programming, without hooking up the supplied signal booster, we got nothing. I hooked up the booster and we were able to pick up 5 channels with a perfect picture. Today I'm going to mount it on the roof and will reprogram to see if we are able to pick up more channels. This small antenna is fantastic!

Great

Living in 92649 area code, this antenna has picked up all of the local channels allowing me to watch over the air shows I've missed since cutting the cord. And this is while having the unit sitting on a stand below my TV, without the amplifier attached. I have plans to put into the attic so it has better range and less obstruction, and also plan to install the amplifier so I can split signal to 3 or 4 TVs versus the one it is currently under. I will update once that is done on how amplifier works and if any issues with splitter and feeding 3 or 4 TVs.

I only pick up 2 channels. My $12 flat antenna that picks up 10 in the same spot.

No está pensada para usarse en México; después de instalarla en el exterior a una altura considerable fue incapaz de sintonizar la mitad de canales que conseguía con las comunes antenas de PVC que venden en los tianguis, que además no requieren pre-amplificador. Lo único que se me ocurre es que la potencia o las bandas de frecuencia no son tan potentes para trabajar en México adecuadamente.

While I would likely get better results installing outside, on a roof, I am still able to get all 8 of my local Vancouver channels. I installed this inside my condo, surrounded by other buildings and trees so not able to get the advertised full 60 mile range. I can only get channels with the antenna near the ceiling. I get no channels near a window or on fireplace mantle. I like I'm able to bracket it to the wall and it looks fairly unobtrusive. I used black drywall screws rather than the chrome coloured metal ones supplied and the unit looks very stylish overall. Picture quality is beautiful on my HD TV.

Easy to install, good looking,but definiely not for rural area use.

I installed this antenna on the side of my 2nd storey chimney, and my reception went from 1 channel with indoor rabbit ears to 6 channels, all clear DTV! I didn't install in my attic due to a metal roof, so can't comment on that. But it's definitely worth the money!
