Great antenna

by

Great antenna. This is what we have been searching for. Our lake house sits down in a valley and the new round antennas do not get any reception. This replaced an older version and we are able to scan 26 air channels and helps us receive our favorite FM radio station.

Great antenna buy

by

Works just great. Wife bought a new expensive smart TV but couldn’t bring in some of her favorite programs. This antenna brings in everything she wants. We are 100 miles from major stations

Best antenna

I've tried several antennas and this one has given me the best reception

Antenna works for VHF low stations

by

Antenna works fairly well, drawing in 3-4 additional stations. A guywire to ground and stabilize the mast seemed to help. One complaint: one of the two posts or bolts to attach the lead wire was scratched/damaged in transit. That wasn't noticed until the last step of assembly, so i re-engineered it to work.

New Antenna Worth It.

Got this shipped out to us fast, I did buy shipping insurance, didn't need it, they package the antenna good, but you can never tell about the shipping company, any way the package came in 2 days. Antenna was fairly easy to put together, this antenna is real big, not hard to handle though, just a little awkward, we are in our 70's, so getting the pole up with the antenna on it was not to hard, antenna was not heavy. We put it up on a single wide mobile home, run about 70 feet of cable to TV and then a splitter for a second TV another 20 feet, receive all the channels on both TVs. I think this antenna is great.

Extreme Signal TV Antenna captures desired VHF channel

by

The HD8200XL antenna, at 14 feet elevation, outperformed original outdoor TV dipole antenna, 22 foot elevation, with a 10 dB broadband amplifier. No amplifier required for the HD8200XL. Picked up my desired RF channel 3 (60 - 66 Mhz) and no pixelization experienced. The 300 ohm balanced to 75 ohm unbalanced matching transformer supplied has poor quality spade lugs. Both original spade lugs were replaced with higher quality crimp spade lugs due to original tabs breaking off. The 5 dB to 6.7 dB antenna gain for RF channel 3 made all the positive difference in viewing experience. Four star rating, not five, due to the matching transformer component quality.

The Antenna WORKS GREAT!

Absolutely fantastic product and service!

This is exactly what I was expecting, very similar to fringe antennas I installed before cable came along. It was easy to assemble. I have it attached to a 30 foot mast pole, and am waiting for my grandson to help me erect it on the gable end of my house. The RF channels I need to pick up are 2, 6, 8, 11, 12, 13, 17, 20, 24, 26, 28, 30, 35, and 36. Most of them are in an arc from 347 degrees to 6 degrees (all mostly north). Three are at 153 and 154 degrees, but are duplicates of some of the others. I may decide later on to get a rotator to pick them up. I had to telephone to place my order, as I could not get the web page to work correctly. The lady assisting me was just fantastic! If I could give 10 stars, I would!

Very big antenna that does the job

by

This antenna is massive! It works great though, pulls in Lo-V signals that I had issues with in the Philadelphia area.

Couldn't be happier. It's big, but it pulls in new channels for us!

Installed this antenna in June to replace one of those cheapy plastic ones with built in amp and rotor. Was trying to fix occasional pixilation one some channels and pick up a low VHF channel that the old antenna could not. Could not be happier with the results. Picking up the low VHF channel without issue. Pixilation is gone. Mounted on 5' mast (also from Solid Signal) on my 2 story roof approx 30' from ground. Some of my attic still blocks the signal. I have transmitters in two different directions (12 miles at 27 degrees, 28 miles at 287). Picks up everything! No amp needed. Only complaint is the little transformer that connects to the antenna and outputs the coax has very fragile 'fork' connectors and very thin wire. I broke one off and ended up clipping off the connectors and wiring direct to the terminals on the antenna. Don't bother with the manual, watch the video on the SolidSignal product page. It's embedded with the product photos on the left hand side.
