5.0 out of 5 stars Antenna helps signal reception., May 13, 2007

By	R. Freeman (Chicago, IL.) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

This Antenna did help signal reception. The cord is only about 15' long, it would be nice if it was longer, so you have more options for getting it to a window or attic. I did not stick it to the exterior of a window as advertised. I placed the antenna above the ceiling tiles near a window, at our manufacturing facility in the H.R. Department, and that worked fine.

Amazon Verified Purchase

I purchased the Midland weather radio from Amazon and it is great, but because I just put a new metal roof on my house I decided to order the window antenna. I ordered through Amazon but it came directly from Atlanta Network Technologies, Inc. It arrived WITHOUT an integral screw. I emailed the company and was told to call. I called, got a voice that told me another email - which I did. I received an email that told me I must pay a restocking fee. I called again and was told to return to Amazon. I contacted Amazon and was told to contact the company. I still don't have "the" screw - but obviously did receive a "screw of sorts". The company is the worst in assistance and will not cooperate. DO NOT EVER PURCHASE FROM ATLANTA NETWORK TECHNOLOGIES. The screw is so small that even Radio Shack doesn't carry it. So now I am forced to order another antenna - but NOT from ANT.
