Review 1 for RCA Basic Indoor Antenna
Cheap but good product

I purchased this antenna to replace my cable tv since I was mostly watching Netflix. I tried a more expensive antenna but only received 3 digital channels and sometimes an analog channel. I did some research and discovered that I was at the most extreme range of most transmitters (60+ miles away) I purchased this antenna and I started receiving 5 digital and one analog channels. Was still very choppy so I purchased a RCA indoor antenna amp and started receiving 6 digital and 2 analog channels. Occasionally it needs adjusted for reception, but that is expected of all indoor antennas. Am very happy with this product as some people I know who have outdoor antennas receive less channels then me.

I was very happy with this product. I couldn't believe all of the channels we could get on our HD TV. We had decided to disconnect our cable and are very happy with what we can watch.

I don't know where this might work but, it won't work very far from the transmitter. I am about 20 miles away and could get nothing, tried on 2 sets in different locations. Will return.

I bought this with very low expectations, being that it was only $10, but it's quality is terrible. It falls over, we can never keep channels, and have to change the antenna every time we turn on the television. Putting it closer to the window was helpful, but still loose reception frequently.

This is a nice antenna but it could not work with my tv, so I had to return it. I had purchased it for a floor model tv.

Review 11 for RCA Basic Indoor Antenna
Worthless

Don't waste your money on this worthless peice of trash. Within minutes of taking it out of the box the telescoping part snapped off. The connection wire is so short it makes it impossible to move it anywhere to try and get a signal. I tried the old trick of putting foil on the tips to get better reception with out success. All in all I would say I just flushed the money down the drain with this stinker. Pass it up.

Not a smart buy.

We purchased this antenna because of the low price thinking we would be able to at least get a couple of basic channels. However, when we got it hooked up, we got one channel, a higher number (so not even a basic news channel). Then, when we tried to adjust the antennas, one of them just snapped right off (barely touched it). I would not recommend this product. We didn't even bother taking it back to the store so that they would re-sell it. Not worth the money.

This antenna is very small but it works really well for my bedroom tv. You have to turn it until you find your reception, which gets a little annoying, but for the price it is worth it.

EXCELLENT CHOICE

Purchased this little baby a few months back and love it! Not only are the channels coming in crystal clear but I actually get more channels for free than I did with the very basic $19/mth cable I was paying. It is just a little lightweight on the bottom but solved that problem by putting a strip of velcro on the bottom and the other strip on top of tv. I think its wild that an antenna like this that reminds me of one my grandmother had years ago still works, but yet the new fangled ones that others sell can't hold up to the durability or quality.

This product is great for the price. Sometimes I have to adjust it according to the TV channel I want to watch, but that's not a huge deal. For around $10, it's a great buy.

Not for digital

This antenna did not work well for me. Meaning it did not pick up any digital stations when I connected it to my converter box. I did purchase a RCA flat amplified digital antenna for 30.00 and it works very well with the Magnavox converter box as well as the RCA converter box.
If you are getting this antenna to go digital I suggest spending a bit more and getting a amplified antenna.
