Monarch 40 White Indoor HDTV Flat Paper Thin Antenna - True 40 Mile Range, Multidirectional Reception, UWB Technology and 4G filter for Maximum UHF/VHF/FM/USB TV Tuner/DVB-T/DAB Radio reception

To be fair, I've never tried any other indoor antennae. I decided to cut the local channels only subscription from Verizon, because by the time I paid for the $12 fee, and the $10 set top box rental, it was costing me a lot to get something that was free. When I went to set this up, it seemed like the cord should screw in, but it doesn't, It snaps on. I was apprehensive, because it doesn't feel quite right. But it works. I wish the cord was about two feet longer, but it gets me pretty close to the window. I set it up without sticking it on anything (because it didn't reach the window). I tried various angles and got between 20-40 channels depending on position. I live in a suburb. I had hoped some of the HD tv channels that came free over the fios tv (like lifetime, national geographic, etc) would come free over the air, but now that I think about it, of course they don't. I still have fios internet, so if anyone knows how I can still get those HD channels free, let me know. As with my family members who have had over the air antenna TV for a while, there are times where the signal seems to pause on some channels. That's a trade I'm willing to make for the time I watch regular channels, and not just Netflix/ Amazon.

hooked it up 2 days ago, works excellent.

30 Miles North of NYC on the river....I am scanning 29 channels in my basement through a 6 inch concrete wall. There are probably more expensive antennas which can pull more channels, but like many of you posting here this antenna is to supplement Netflix, Amazon Video, YouTube etc...very happy with it for less than $10.

I bought 2 for the fact that we cut cable years ago. We have tried many different streaming services such as sling and directtv now. Everything seems to be missing a channel that we regularly watch. So finally I decided to settle with playstation vue and then philo for the few channels we were missing since it's really cheap(definitely reccomend checking out by the way) but, little did I know my wife was missing out on NBC she watches when I leave for work in the morning and Ellen during the day...so instead of furthering my streaming search I bought 2 of these for the 2 rooms she uses most. INCREDIBLE. I live in Columbus Ohio where everything is with 20-30 miles so I didnt need something expensive or strong. These were a great buy at a great price. They hide well behind a TV so you would never know they were there and I have them stuck directly to the wall. The picture is clear and reception is awesome. I only pick up about 25 channels but I only needed a couple so no complaints here. If I ever needed to buy more for the rest of my TVs this would definitely be the one I would buy again!

Not very multidirectional, and that's why I bought it. I live on the edge of a pretty big city. The network antennas are all in one general direction from my house, but they aren't in the same specific direction. Even with 3 different antennas, I couldn't get all the channels to come in clearly all the time, there was always one or two that had problems. So I got this 'multidirectional' antenna. I 'aimed' it for the weakest station. BTW; the instructions suq at telling you how to aim the antenna. I contacted the seller and was told to 'point' the flat part with the sticky pads 'at' the antenna. It was about the same as the other antennas. Then I did some trial and error with the antenna, and found that if I aimed it 10-15 degrees from where station antenna actually is, the picture came in real well! But two other channels didn't come in as well... I will continue to use it, because it is smaller than my previous antenna. But I'm still looking for a multidirectional antenna.

Surprised it picked up more local channels. Better quality that expected

I own 2 Vizio 55" & 1 Samsung 36" smart TV's. Tried this antenna on all 3 TV's and auto channel programing on antenna source then cable source. Both modes search for analog & digital and found nothing. I purchased this because my neighbor across the street purchased one just like this from Best Buy and they receive 8 channels very clearly. I'm thinking there is a big difference in the 2 manufacturers even though they are the same price. Don't waste your money on this antenna.

Needed an antenna that was not at all visible and that I could install on new samsung tv. This worked perfectly and got a decent amount of channels (if I placed the antenna near the window it got all the channels, but hidden under the TV it got over half, other antennas I tried did not come close to that).

It can receive certain channel better than other. My favorite channel 92.4 FM for classical music encounter static noice while other channels are crystal clear.
