2 out of 5 stars Only slightly better than aluminum foil...   March 13, 2002
 10 out of 12 found this review helpful

I had aluminum foil attached via coaxial cable to my T.V. before I purchased this antenna. After hooking the antenna up, I noticed only marginal improvements. Also, if you want to change between lesser reception channels, you have to completely reposition the antenna. I would return it, but I would get barely half of what I paid for it, since I would still have to pay for return shipping as well as the original shipping cost.

The reception is much better than my old antenna, however, I was expecting instructions to be included with the antenna. After some time I figured out how to hook up the tv and vcr to the antenna.


2 out of 5 stars Not what I expected   March 2, 2002
 5 out of 13 found this review helpful

Based on the reviews and the picture I was expecting an antenna that would hookup to both the TV and the VCR. Instead it only hooks to the TV.
The reception is very good, a much better improvement than what I had. Now I have to search for help and while searching for help found out that RCA is owned by Thomson Multimedia and there's no central office to contact.
If you only have one TV and no VCR or DVD, this gives very good reception, but forget it if you have all types of extras with the TV.



5 out of 5 stars Great value!   February 19, 2002

I am able to tune in channels that were previously quite impossible here, with this little antenna!! The antenna on the roof of this building is completely useless, at best. I am quite impressed and pleasantly surprised by the performance of this antenna that put only a tiny dent in my pocket!


4 out of 5 stars Good product...good price!   January 1, 2002

This antenna works like a charm, and it's an excellent value for the price. There is a lot of interference in this area, but I've been enjoying a nice clear picture. It brings in the local VHF and large UHF stations quite clearly. The smaller UHF stations come in a bit fuzzy or only at certain times of day, but this antenna does a good job of boosting the signal.

This is quite easy to hook up, too. It comes with a coax to screw down adapter, so it should fit any TV right out of the box without requiring any additional trips to Radio Shack. A big plus in my book.

I like the modern appearance of the antenna. However, with both of the "rabbit ears" on the same end of the TV it seem kind of off balance. Since it's not fixed to the top of the TV set, it ends up on the floor a lot. It also gets moved from its optimal position, so you have to reposition it from time to time. Not a big deal...just an observation.

For the price, I don't see how you could do better than this one.
