The one that i bought from Amazon (this brand, but cannot recall model number) was worse than the home-made antenna here.
I'm in a lousy area. The antenna was returned it for full refund. Last edited by FrozenBiker; 02-12-2013 at 04:12 PM.. Reason: Automerged Doublepost Apple computers may be underpowered, but they are overpriced to make up for that

I bought this open box from the Mohu website last summer for ~$20. Brand new this is a great deal. This thing replaced a bulky Phillips powered antenna that I got sick of constantly repositioning and still getting a shoddy signal. With this I get a ton of channels in perfect HD with no interuption. I would avoid using the sticky velcro it comes with to attach to a wall since it doesn't stay up long and it takes the paint off the walls when you want to remove them. I ended up using white push pins around the plastic edges of the antenna to stick to the wall. Works great

I am urban dweller. I have the amplified version for over an year now. I tried it in both apartments and independent homes. It is horrible.
Not all channels are picked up at one location. Even the same channel that is picked up today at one spot will be picked up at a different spot tomorrow or during a different time in the same day. After sticking long patches of Velcro to the wall and moving it around, I am finally fed up. This product sucks. |

Picked up one to compare with the HomeWorx Digital TV Flat Antenna [meritline.com]I got from meritline.com for $7.

Bought one last time. It was more convenient than the loop and rabbit ears since I never had to fidget with it but it could never pickup VHF which was inconvenient when trying to watch local sports on CBS. I am far from the source and didn't have a good angle to place it too.

I just put up my first MoHu leaf yesterday, by coincidence (from an old SD but I never opened it), and it replaces an amplified GE rabbit-ears-with-fold-out dish-thingy from Target that had to be plugged in to AC. Did a channel-by-channel comparison, and MoHu wins by a fair margin. Smaller form factor, no power needed, and it looks even better.

This is a superior product. I put one in my nephew's place in Pearland TX and spent more time programming out non-English channels than anything else. That being said I wouldn't even try one in Galveston. Because we are about 45 miles from the cluster of Houston transmitters and NO indoor antenna will get more than 2 or 3 signals reliably. There are multiple reviews online that confirm that the Mohu is better than the competition. The best thing to do is determine if you are within range (30 miles as I recall) by going to AntennaWeb.org [antennaweb.org]
