The Best HD Antenna I Have Ever Installed,
By
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Philips MANT950 Indoor/Outdoor Amplified UHF/VHF/HDTV Antenna (Electronics)
I installed this antenna for a friend on a existing roof mast. The range on the mant 950 is listed at 40 miles from transmitter tower. We are 50 miles from Chicago and this antenna pulled in every HD and anolog channel clear as a bell. I am buying one now!

Tried the rest and this is the best!,
By Silver Bear (Longmont, CO United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Philips MANT950 Indoor/Outdoor Amplified UHF/VHF/HDTV Antenna (Electronics)
I tried 6 different indoor antennas for digitial HD reception. A Phillips rabbit ear model worked pretty well out of all of them but I had to constantly adjust the ears for each channel to obtain optimal reception. I finally decided to get an exterior antenna but the homeowners association prohibits them mounted on the roof. All the satellite dishes are mounted on a post in the ground so I bought a post, mounted the antenna, pointed it, and voila! I now have 17 digital channels when I previously had only 5! I even picked up a couple analog channels from over 75 miles away. It is supposed to be multidirectional but aiming it helps. I used a nifty feature on the www.antennaweb.org website to determine the best direction. The antenna is mounted only five feet above the ground and dosen't look half bad although I have had a couple curious comments. The reception is better than a friends digital cable on the very same TV. Perhaps the other antennas would have worked good outside as well, but the rabbit ears would have continued to be a pain. From the research I have done, exterior mounting is the best way to go. BONUS! For kicks I hooked up my FM radio receiver to the same antenna and now I get more quality stereo stations than I need. Then I decided to add another spliter and hooked up a basement TV that I had relegated to DVD use only due to poor reception. The antenna powers all three devices with no noticable reduction in picture quality on the big screen. For less than $60 this is a must buy for a low profile outdoor antenna. Three friends have purchased it on my advice and have thanked me profusely for the suggestion.

amazing antenna,
By Akshay (San Jose) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Philips MANT950 Indoor/Outdoor Amplified UHF/VHF/HDTV Antenna (Electronics)
I used this antenna because no other amplified would pull in all the channels in San Jose. It is very light, was able to wall mount using only two push pins, and brought in all the channels. Definitely buy if you live in a poor reception area.
