I have been in the electronics business for over 30 years and I have never seen anything worse then this antenna. When I first got my HDTV I ran just a bare wire and put some loops in it and it received most of the stations but there were a couple that wouldn't stay locked so I thought any cheap antenna should work fine to make those 2 stations stay locked. I was very wrong with this antenna, it wouldn't even receive those two or most of the others stations that I received off of the home made wire antenna. I just threw away $40. Don't make the same mistake I did. This is built very cheap and the rotator doesn't work all of the time and the coax is a joke.
