This antenna looks like it has a fixed crappy coaxial cable. The kind that you have consistently condemned. Is that the case here? Hard to tell from the video.

[@ManoloGal]

I've got to tell you that this rabbit ear antenna actually works pretty well. I just installed it and it's picking up all of the local channels it should and I live in a concrete/steel high rise with the TV/antenna on an interior wall in downtown district in NEPA. Thanks for the recommendation, @AntennaMan!

[@victoryfirst2878]

I hope you make a video on a deep fridge super gain antennas soon. The leaves are starting to come into their own. Just wish this small antenna would work for me.

[@TELEVISIONARCHIVES]

@@ManoloGal Same here. Beats all of the MOHU Antennas for sure and I'm so impressed with it. I get all the locals that broadcast here and it's sitting on top of my TV stand.

[@tonym8358]

Next to the link of this antenna there is a phillips square with rabbit for 35.00 claims to do 10 miles more and block 4G and 5G signals

[@PC4USE1]

As an apartment dweller,i am always glued to the screen on your indoor antenna videos. So many cord cutters are subject to rental agreements that deprive them of the ability to access an outdoor antenna. I definitely like the versatility of this antenna as to placement.

[@fuijika]

Looks like the classic indoor antenna design was already perfect. Reminds me of the day VHF and UHF had separate antenna connector on the TV set.

[@TELEVISIONARCHIVES]

It's good. Not for everyone but it beats every indoor Antenna I've tried so far.

[@timmyburden5701]

I at first thought I hadn't clicked on this video. That was one long advertisement.

[@Craig1967]

I ordered the antenna you reviewed in this video using the link you provided, and it arrived today. I put it in the same place as the old antenna (similar to thes the one on top of your TV in your videos) and left the pre-amp that came with the other antenna in-line. So, the only thing that was changed was the antenna. Wow - It worked great! Thank you! I scanned channels before swapping it out, and got 67 channels. After swapping it, I got 91 channels. Thank you for suggesting it. I can't "thank you enough."

[@redscorpion9325]

Wow! I ordered this same Antenna,hopefully it works well for me because I want to cut Cable,it cost me $240 a Month with Phone and Internet but last it was $220 and few years it was way less so I want to cut Cable and keep Internet on

[@RexBuyeo]

[@Liam-Carlson]

Thanks

[@solarbirdyz]

It's nice to see a small indoor antenna actually perform well for a change. Good to see they're still out there.

[@TELEVISIONARCHIVES]

Purchased for my son at College. The perfect Antenna because he's only 10 miles from the towers. Thanks. Used the link you provided

[@AntennaMan]

Thanks! I'm sure it will work well.

[@TELEVISIONARCHIVES]

Tested the Antenna today. Very impressed with the performance. First tested it from 28 miles away and had no problem picking up channels. Received the VHF Channel 2 NBC Channel after moving it a few times. A first for an indoor Antenna in my area to get the NBC VHF Channel. That is the key to this antenna is to move it to find the ideal spot. This Antenna beats all of the Mohu Leaf Antennas I have tested. For the price, this is one of the best for sure. My son will be testing it at UCF later and he will be much closer to the towers. Thanks, Tyler.

[@AntennaMan]

Glad to hear it worked well for you. Thanks for sharing your feedback.

[@HerbieHerbHerb]

Excellent antenna. This antenna can pickup over 50 stations in my area which includes substations. I live 25 to 30 miles from most stations the closest being 12 miles. I am very satisfied. Thanks for this recommendation.

[@jackjohnson2101]

Damn, over two minutes of testosterone commercial.

[@jimwilson7403]

I picked 2 of these up recently. I used 1 in my apt bedroom and it worked just as well as the Clearstream 2Max it replaced. I used the 2nd one i purchased for my digital police scanner. It improved reception remarkably better than the dipole that came with the scanner.

[@Nicholas_Chris]

The indoor antennas are a major advantage if you have a portable TV and you mostly used it outside, you get most of the channels with a very good signal.

[@CyanTeamProductions]

I got a portable analog TV from the 80’s and I’m trying to revive it to be useable. Like I might buy a battery powered digital converter box

[@andysrandomness]

This antenna defiantly did help me out with receiving my very strong VHF/UHF stations in NYC

[@gjurczyc]

I bought one for just over 10 dollars. Your review is right on the mark! It is a great antenna and works really well.

[@docwho10th88]

Hey amigo! This is HANDS DOWN the best bang for your buck antenna! I was using a flat antenna outside and this thing indoors BESTED it in SPADES! In fact, it picked up 15 more channels than any other previous antennas that I have used in the past. I just hooked up 20ft coaxial cable and hid the antenna high up on a window behind a curtain that is always closed so it can't be seen. I also used the little amplifier that came with the flat plastic antenna and it boosted the numbers on the tv signal meter to 98 and 100 on most channels. I decided not to use the amp because I was still drawing in rock steady 86 to 98 with it on the majority of the channels. Since then I have bought 3 more of these for my other sets. For just $11.25 this is a no brainer! Thanks again for your review. Btw, do you have an antenna rankings chart? Oh..I also did a review on Amazon giving you your deserved props!

[@paulanderegg5536]

I LOVE THIS THING! I previously tried the Mohu and Flatenna larger offerings, used shipping tape to affix them white side out on a condo window. My favorite station never could get unbroken reception, VHF channelm 10 around 195MHz. I tried a simple telescoping whip with a magnet, but hard to get it in the right spot AND in the right orientation. This cheap Philips antenna though, wow, I TAPED the top of the loop onto the window, the large black puck hanging down with both antenna elements simply sticking out to each side...BAM, I now have VHF reception across the board. YAY. Interesting note when testing positioning via Sony TV. SNR was the only thing that mattered, as a 50 for RSSI with 20 SNR got a signal, but a 70 RSSI with 18 SNR would not, which was really odd. If you place these suckers vertically instead of horizontally, you can get a similar really high yet undecodable signal.

[@alpuptv]

I found this old Phillips antenna at my grandma's house that she used 5-6 years ago and (shockingly) it still works, since I have already used it before.

[@achecase]

[@estellepatella2520]

I agree. Hone Health is total BS.

[@scottmerrow1488]

They worked very well for over 50 years in strong signal areas

[@brianinct4631]

In fact, well over 70 years for just the rabbit ears (for VHF). In my experience over the years, this type of indoor TV antenna had almost DOUBLE the range in the NTSC era as when compared to ATSC 1.0. So back in analog days, a rabbit ears and loop could get you a snowy but watchable picture in moderate signal areas. Sometimes old technology has a few strengths over the new.

[@bettyyoung868]

I bought this antenna recently after trying 3 different style antennas from Walmart. While the 3 previous antennas received a few channels, this little Phillips rabbit ears brought in 60+ channels. I am amazed…. 40+ miles from broadcast towers in the San Francisco Bay Area. Before using this antenna, I was resigned to installing an outdoor antenna. Now maybe not.

[@raderator]

I have two of these. Work very well and look much nicer and more modern than traditional rabbit ears. The VHF elements may serve somewhat as reflectors for the UHF element.

[@Wardell43]

I live on the North Carolina and use an outside set up. But this is a hurricane zone and after the storm you need to crank up the generator and a fan and your cheapest tv and an indoor antenna.

[@CommodoreFan64]

I'm down in S. Carolina, and about 3 - 4 hours from the coast, so even further inland having a generator ready to go is a good thing to be able to keep the cell phones charged up, and run the refrigerator if the power is out for longer than a day.

[@ronaldsimmonds1002]

@@CommodoreFan64 Rock Hill South Carolina on the North Carolina border Charlotte 20 minutes away. I totally agree with you about the generators! Hurricane Hugo Thursday, September 22, 1989. Kicked my ass and taught me a valuable lesson.🇺🇸👍🏻

[@CommodoreFan64]

@@ronaldsimmonds1002 I was only 8 when Hugo hit here on the SC/GA border, and it for sure taught me, and my family a lesson, as well, so when hurricane season of 90 hit, we made sure with had at least a small generator, and an emergency box of storables to last a few days, and I've made sure to have the same every year, as it really did come in handy during the ice storm of 2014 where parts of my town were without power for over a week, and I was able to take extra hot food to some of my elderly neighbors who were less fortunate, and/or less prepared, as I also had a gas grill outside to cook on.

[@petesjk]

Antennas are incredibly simple, but like anything they have to be implemented properly. My elec engineering roommate built one out of some wire and a wood block.

[@F1Vettel_fan]

Thanks for helping me get better reception with this antenna!

[@AntennaMan]

I'm glad my videos helped you get better reception. Feel free to give a contribution at the link below as I spend A LOT of time making the videos and responding to these comments: antennamanpa.com/support.html

[@Markimark151]

That Phillips antenna is decent for apartments and condos, my sister got one, although it doesn’t pick up everything especially the low frequency channels like PBS and ABC, but at least able to watch local sports like baseball and the USFL!

[@patrickmartin4996]

As I found out with the Channel Master 35 indoor antenna, I do get all 6 of our translators, then several that are listed as "Fair". So some indoor antenna can get weaker signals. Will not match an outdoor antenna, but some work very well. With any indoor antenna placement is very important, as the indoor antenna only has a small amount of gain. Great video!

[@jamespfitz]

This antenna ROCKS! WAY better than my Mohu Leaf. Thanks, Antenna Man!

[@CharTurner6928]

I have this antenna and it works great for me.

[@roxcyn]

This is the one I use, and have used RCA before. Very economical,.too.

[@KevinT7274]

I tested this antenna outside using a piece of flat coax to run rg6 through a basement door and I was able to even pick up 6ABC in Philly. Was getting MeTV2 also but it was pixilated. Very impressive for an antenna with only 15 inch Hi VHF dipoles.

[@user-sn6tb3mw1u]

Love your channel! I’m getting ready to cut cable but what do you do for internet?

[@FMGTVOfficial]

Surprising results given the price for this antenna. My family subscribes to cable TV but I've been looking to get an antenna just out of curiosity to see how many channels I'll get in my area. As mentioned in a comment on a previous video, I was able to get around 20 channels using a paper clip on my older 32 inch TV. I now have a 40 inch TV that's mounted to the wall so it's very hard to get OTA TV signals now. I'm torn between this antenna and the Mohu Leaf Supreme Pro. Broadcast towers are within 20 miles of my house so I'm wanting to get as many channels as I can with an antenna.

[@1locust1]

I've also had surprising success with a large paper clip sticking out of the coax for my bedroom tv.

[@FMGTVOfficial]

@@1locust1 I've tried this too and it helps out a lot it seems.

[@mistermac56]

I live in an apartment community, and our local stations are 25 miles away, and I bought this antenna, as my Winegard flat antenna couldn't pull in the two high VHF stations in my area. I was pleasantly surprised that not only do I get excellent signal strength for the two high VHF stations, but the antenna pulls in 20 more UHF TV stations than the Winegard antenna. It is worth the time and money to try the Philips antenna if one lives in an apartment, using Tyler's link above of course! 😀

[@SuperMrgentleman]

Works great, TV picks up 39 stations, including ones rabbitears says will be awful. Station 10 miles away that was glitchy with a flat antenna comes in at 96-99%. You really should highlight top picks like these for people to find them!

[@raramonty5217]

What booster should help best with indoor antenna's??

[@brianjrichman]

Tyler... Note: I have no connection with anyone in the broadcast industry. So an amplified indoor flat panel antenna of mine died. I replaced it with this Philips antenna after seeing your video - after all, for les than $15 it's no great loss if this doesn't work. Well, it replaced the other, amplified antenna and without the preamp that the other one had built in. I would say this antenna worked as well as the old one did. My market is DFW and I am about 30 miles from the local antenna "farm". Our channel 8 (ABC) is the only VHF one and works perfectly with this antenna. Thanks for the review. This one is a bargain.

[@Techno.Junkie]

Tyler, thanks for your help as always, I installed one of these indoor antennas at my folks condo in Lantana, FL, it works great, they get about 38 channels! Today I installed one at a friends apartment in Glens Falls, NY. They’re getting WRGB, CBS & WNYT, NBC 4:41 4:43 both Albany stations that have repeaters on nearby West Mountain. WTEN, ABC & WXXA, FOX are owned by Nextstar so of course there’s no local repeaters.

[@dennisud]

Thanks for this one. I'll get it and let you know how it works for my Bedroom TV!👍

[@davidadams3478]

I've actually had this antenna for the past year or so. I was so impressed with it that I bought another. Would a booster of some sort help with the signals a bit more? I've never bought a booster before. The cord is a bit short so I feel like I'm a bit limited in being able to place the antenna strategically(and I don't want to get an extension cord which will weaken the signal).

[@AntennaMan]

Thanks for sharing your experience with this antenna. An indoor amplifier might help reception or it might not. Most times the only way to improve reception with an indoor antenna is to try different locations for it.

[@TELEVISIONARCHIVES]

Tyler really got it right for sure. I love mine.

[@davidwalle5025]

My old rabbit ear "analog" antenna works for digital signals only the very strong ones. drop out is a problem with the weaker signals.

[@benstandard]

External antennas do that as well - just not as much. Once the atsc 1.0 tuner is phased out and replaced by the upcoming one that might not be as much of an issue anymore.

[@studebricker2845]

I still have an old rabbit ears antenna I used on my flat tube TV like 15 years ago. Will that not work on my new TV just because of the connections? Thanks.

[@stereomann83]

the amplified silver rca antenna works pretty good. it also works for FM Radio.

[@VHOU812]

This Antenna performs better then the $40 RCA Amplified Antenna I also purchased. I am about 18 miles from all the broadcast towers for the Detroit market. Sitting behind my 55” TCL TV, on a tv stand about 4’ off the ground I am able to get: Fox, NBC, ABC, ION, (31) Independent, (50.1) CW, PBS, and CBS. All sub channels as well of course. There is a delicate balance in getting solid reception for Fox, which is a HI-V (VHF) station and NBC-CBS Due to the placement of the towers, but I can report this antenna can due that from my range. You will have to take some time to make incremental adjustments. Your tv tuner has a lot to do with this as well, of the 4 TCL TV’s I have owned I will say their NTSC GEN 1 tuners offer really good performance. I need to say something about the Fox 2 (VHF) channel. Yesterday morning all was well watching Fox 2 news and switching between that and the Fox Weather sub channel until me and my son started our 3d printer in the room behind the tv for a really long print. Fox 2 (2.1) became unwatchable. in fact, after I ran a bunch of channel scans thinking something was wrong it was never picked up again until we shut off the 3d printer! After that everything went back to the way it was before. Just a heads up, it drove me fricking crazy the whole day. I was searching local Reddit threads to see if other people have had this issue. One guy remarked about his microwave causing an issue with his Fox 2 news reception when it was in use and that kinda tipped me off.

[@vincemorath676]

Thanks for the video.

[@alamba78]

Would the antenna work without a digital converter box and plugged directly to the TV? What is the advantage of the digital converter box other than the built-in signal meter?

I have a smart TV and I love watching local stuff sometimes and I had a dumb onn antenna and it sucked and it was a pain to watch local tv on and also it was old so I needed a new one so I watched your videos and looked online ect... So today I found the Philip's antenna and it looked small on screen but in person it's a little big and compact and it works fantastic for my smart TV I love it

What happens if you add an amplifier? You could open antenna up, add a balun preamp and rg6.

Many madison stations come in crystal clear, again 70 miles away but only with amplifier.
