There was a problem filtering reviews right now. Please try again later.
Since it worked so well hanging from the nail, I just mounted it to a piece of PVC hanging from the rafter and pointed it in the right direction. Running it through a passive balanced 6 way splitter and have strong signal everywhere.

Winegard HD7698P Platinum Series Long Range Outdoor TV Antenna (Digital, 4K Ultra-HD Ready, ATSC 3.0 Ready, High-VHF, UHF) - 65+ Mile Long Range HD Antenna
None of these could master the surrounding trees. Winegard customer service told me not to bother buying their largest model, because my problem is trees and there was nothing more they could do.
So we settled. We relied on Netflix & Amazon streaming, which have plenty of entertainment options, but don't give us local & network TV stations.
Unfortunately, the moderately expensive (although one-time cost) Tablo 4-Tuner Digital Video Recorder [DVR] for Over-The-Air [OTA] HDTV with Wi-Fi for LIVE TV Streaming we purchased to record free broadcast TV was underutilized due to poor reception on some key channels (CBS & ABC especially). I became fed up during this Winter Olympics when even NBC reception couldn't sustain a reasonable standard (putting a damper on our Olympic spirit). In desperation I again turned to Google & Amazon to scour antenna reviews only to stumble upon this Channel Master 4228HD. I decided to give it a try.
This antenna is so much smaller than the Winegard and much easier to install. Up it went today within 15 minutes (because I was able to use our existing tripod & pole) with exceptional results: NBC, ABC & even persnickety CBS came in rock solid, with amazing High Definition. Hello free TV! This is the experience we envisioned when we cut the cord. Our Tablo DVR will now be able to deliver to its full potential.
The bottom line is that before you cut the cord, it is important to find a setup that works for your situation. Figure out how to get good signal first, then move on to things like actually cancelling cable/satellite & investing in cool items like a whole-home DVR (really, check out the Tablo, but only once you have good reception). Our setup is as follows: This antenna mounted to a 1-1/4" conduit mounted on a Winegard SW-0010 Tripod Mount for Antenna ==> Winegard LNA-200 Boost XT HDTV Preamplifier, TV Antenna Amplifier Signal Booster, HD Digital VHF UHF Amplifier (10x Power, Low Noise, 20 dB Max Gain) - USA ==> Motorola Signal Booster 4-Port BDA-S4 Cable Modem TV HDTV Amplifier ==> coax cable to 3 HDTVs & one Tablo. The Tablo alone distributes to all the TVs via Rokus (and distributes to all other devices connected to the home network), but I like having the cable connections too. The signal taken in by this antenna is easily strong enough to distribute to all four connections.
Photos are of the conquered trees.

Boy, did I ever get an antenna with good range! In theory, this antenna has an 80 mile range, and those theoretical numbers are usually under ideal, laboratory-like conditions. But with an antenna that's mounted about 30-40 feet high with several condos and office buildings in the area, I was still able to pick up a broadcaster that TVFool says is 90.1 miles away, with an NM of -23.3 dB, signal power of -114.2 dBm, and the signal path is tropospheric scatter. Basically, I shouldn't be getting this signal at all, but according to my TV, I'm getting a "Good" signal. I'm also getting a lot of strong signals from other US broadcasters in Buffalo (I'm in north Toronto).
This was not a cheap antenna, certainly more expensive than other options out there (and I seriously considered buying the cheaper antennas). But considering what my cable TV bill was before, I made all my OTA-related purchases with an eye towards how long it would take for me to break even after I save on cable TV costs, and the break even time for this antenna was very short. Considering that I'm getting 40 channels and subchannels without tweaking the direction of my antenna to hit that sweet spot, this antenna was well worth the cost. Channel Master is a trusted brand, and I can see why!

i use this 'outdoor' antenna in my 'indoor' setup
i am on ground floor, in downtown toronto, big window facing south
works more reliably than previous setup [2x4-bay antennas connected together w/ combiner] and i get channels from pretty far away - i do use a $10 'amplifier' connected to cable just before tv
i have a filter too but when removed from setup i get more channels
one note tho' is that their tech support sucks
just try various setup on your own - seems tech support is just guessing
i am in downtown toronto [king/dufferin], ground floor apt w/ big south window
now i get channels from toronto, hamilton, batavia ny, baffalo ny
still better than paying those telcos - and i get pic quality just like telcos get BUT do not provide
The antenna was delivered before the expected date. The vendor was very prompt with a reply for return of product when I submitted a return request.
