1byone 2020 [Newest] Foldable HD TV Antenna - Get Crisp, Clear HDTV Reception!

PT112: This is the only indoor antenna that worked in my "dead zone room."

I call it that because I've tried so many antennas in there and the best I could get was 1 channel that wouldn't lock in.

I watched Antenna Man's review of this one and decided to try one more. I hoped that it would at least lock in that one channel. Well, it did and to my surprise, it locked in 17 more as well!

I'm truly impressed.

J. Anderson: Works so well on our second TV set that I replaced the old one on our main set. Easy set up. No glitches or problems. Highly recommend it.

autotkgradautotkgrad: Item arrived in it's original box w/o additional packaging. The bottom long edge was slightly torn. But, the antenna 'wings' were damaged. Antenna still works, but is an eyesore.

Update - submitted an exchange for a replacement... The new box arrived in the same condition. (No other packaging and with 2 tears and a dent.) Contents appear OK at first glance.

KShaw: UPDATE: Since my previous review, I've discovered the antenna developed problems with longer use. A corner of one of the wings has broken off exposing some white material and the top edge is chipped. Sitting on top of the patio door frame caused the wings on either side to warp more with also some warping in the center panel. I didn't want to attach it to the wall in case it needed frequent location changes and rescans (which it does). Recently, it started losing channels even though the 5 local TV transmission towers are less than 46 miles from my home. When I first got it, I might rescan every other week; now, I have to rescan every other day. If 33 channels are memorized during a rescan, less than half will have a strong enough signal to be watchable. Yesterday, the antenna dropped the majority of 48 channels it had received the day before. Even though it was a bright sunny day with very little breeze, a rescan only received 12 channels (1 network channel and 11 substations). After 3 hours of relocating the antenna and rescanning, I was finally able to get 3 network stations and 14 substations that were strong enough to be watchable, but most were not stations...

Cattracks31: Interesting little unit. I have 2 other competitive units so I have run a reasonable set of tests.

With the "wings" fully out I have checked this little guy in numerous areas in the room, even near the window. The only station it doesn't get is the local ABC UHF station. This is disappointing because I bought this with the advert that it does a better job than the competition in this area. Everybody does VHF. Not everyone does UHF well. It does get a lot of VHF channels. Placement in the room always makes a difference.

It can be placed in many areas. With the wings partially folded it can go on a bookcase, or it can hang from a window curtain rod.

So: Gets a lot of VHF channels, UHF may be an issue unless you are close, easy to set up, unobtrusive and stylish if you need to hide. Would probably be better in urban than rural environment.
