To protect your house and your TV installation, your antenna system must be properly grounded. (Coaxial Grounding Block included)
1, Clamp a#10 copper or #8 aluminum grounding wire to the base of the antenna mast. Using stand-offs every 1.2m to 1.8m /4 to 6 feet, run the wire down the building in as straight a line as possible.
2, Attach a 300-Ohm static discharge unit (lightning arrestor) or a 75-Ohm grounding block to the antenna’s lead-in cable as close as possible to the point where the cable enters the house.
3, Attach the grounding wire to the lead-in cable’s grounding unit and run the wire to the central building ground.
Acceptable central building ground points may include:
Grounded interior metal cold water pipe within 1.5m/ 5 feet of the point where it enters the building Grounded metallic service raceway
Grounded electrical service equipment enclosure
2.4m / 8foot grounding rod driven into the ground (only if bonded to the central building ground by #6 or heavier bonding wire)
Other acceptable electrodes that comply with the sections 250 and 810 of the National Electrical Code (NEC)
Note: TV signal reception is immensely affected by the conditions such as antenna height, terrain, distance from broadcasting transmission antenna and output power of transmitter. Channels you can watch may vary depending on these conditions.
Please check the TV's manual to make sure the TV has a built-in tuner for receiving over-the-air broadcast
WATCH WHAT YOU WANT!
The HDTV reception ensures that you always have the highest quality content.
Depending on your location, the HDTV antenna can receive include NBC, FOX, CBS, ABC, PBS, THE CW, QUBO, TELEMUNDO, UNIVISION, RTV, THIS TV, ION, ME TV, the weather channels and SO MUCH MORE.

NOTE: BEFORE YOU BUY:
find channels that works in your area:
- dtv.gov/maps is run by the Consumer Electronics Association and the National Association of Broadcasters.The interface hasn’t changed in over a decade, but it’s simple and the information is useful.
- TVFool is more complex but gives a lot more detail including gorgeous plots of theoretical signal strength and where the broadcast towers are located.
And if you’re looking for a cable-style TV schedule, "TitanTV" is a free Web service that lists local programming.
Please Note:
1. For flatscreen HDTVs, please check the TV's manual to make sure the TV has a built-in tuner for receiving over-the-air broadcast, and make sure this tuner can receive HD signals or else it will not be able to receive and watch HD channels.
2.Retune your TV and/or digital box from time to time to ensure you are receiving all available services. Retuning takes only a few minutes using the remote control.
3.Antenna signal strength can vary depending on distance from the tower, terrain, and weather. Reposition the antenna in a different location if needed. It is best for the antenna to be in line of sight with the TV tower(s) and avoid obstructions. Always re-scan for channels after moving the antenna.
4. If your TV has no built-in tuner, you can add an ATSC digital converter box to receive the HD signal.

This antenna works great. We are 45 miles from the transmission site and get a clear strong signal. It was easy to install and recommend it highly. Working with the customer service team was easy and productive. They are very responsive if there is an issue and work to resolve it promptly.

Easy to install. We are in a very rural area and it works as it should. We get between 28 to 40 channels. Depends on what direction it's pointing.

Worked great until it was struck by lightning, which is expected. I don't blame the product for that at all. Gave me 50 channels in my small town. Rotating feature from the house was perfect. We hooked it up to our old cable lines that the cable company installed when we bought the house, so install for us was straightforward. My father and I were very excited to test it out. The producy was very lightweight which made it seem cheap, but it's function outweighs that. We cut an old metal fence post to nake a mounting rod. Great product!

Plastic antenna components did not weather/age well: the plastic became brittle and some of the antenna "arms" broke off. The motor worked fine in all weather conditions and the initial setup was easy and "hassle-free." The product worked as advertised and was less expensive than competing models.

This is the best antenna I have ever bought. And I've been through a lot of antennas. It picks up way more channels then all the other antennas and the picture comes out in HD quality. It was easy to setup and works perfectly. Comes with a long coaxial cable and remote. Customer service is fantastic. Special thanks to Bill.

This has been a very good antenna. We pick up some channels that we have never been able to pick up before. It’s easy to assemble and doesn’t stick out like a sore thumb.The customer service has been great as well.

I live in the country, midway between two major cities. Each is roughly 70 miles away. Reception has been excellent in both directions. It was easy to mount on top of a single story house and has withstood some fairly high winds and sub zero temperatures so far. I am very impressed with this antenna and would recommend it to anyone looking for good value for the money.

tl;dr Will probably be fine if you live close to the television station but may not be powerful enough if you're 30 miles away or have lots of trees.I bought the PBD Outdoor Digital Amplified HDTV Antenna when I decided to cut the cord and get rid of satellite TV. I had zero experience with TV antennas, so I turned to my Facebook friends for recommendations. Two local friends recommended this antenna. My experience was not as great as theirs.It's comes basically assembled. I only needed to open the two rounded rectangular "wings" at the back—one of the aluminum tubes bent with the force needed to snap them into their plastic housings. Our package did not include the grounding block that was supposed to come with it, but we didn't notice until after we'd installed it. Seems important, though, so if you buy this, double-check that you've got a grounding block.Hubs was out of town when the antenna was delivered, so the boy and I got impatient and tested it out by setting it on the dresser by the window and plugging the coax cable into the receiver/tuner and then plugging the much-thinner attached cord (it's probably 1/3 the thickness of regular coax) into the TV. We plugged the power cord in and fired it up. I'm guessing the electrical power is for the rotor, which can be turned by either the remote control or the button on the actual receiver. We ran a channel scan and got a few channels... none of the local network stations, but we didn't expect much—the few we got encouraged us that we'd get them all once the antenna was actually up on the roof.Hubs installed the antenna on the roof with an extender pole (same company, different purchase). I used tvfool.com to get exact locations of the stations available to me (approximately 30 miles away) and hubs used a compass to point the antenna accurately. After a channel scan, we did pick up quite a few stations, but we never could get one of the network stations to come in clearly at all (lots of cutting out, pixelation, and ghosts), and we had to choose between two other network stations, as they are a few miles apart. Because the entire reason for getting an antenna in the first place was to watch NFL games on our local network stations, this was unacceptable. (Incidentally, when we bypassed the tuner/rotor and plugged the coax directly from the antenna into the TV, we got *more* stations (about 30), although still didn't get the networks. So the tuner is weak—at least, weaker than our 6-year-old TV's built-in tuner.)We ended up buying a larger, more traditional-looking antenna (a Stellar Labs 30-2370) and were able to get 70-something stations (that we care nothing about) and all four local networks that broadcast NFL games (all we care about).
