I took down my damaged antenna and am waiting for my Daughter’s birthday present to order a new one (she always gives me an Amazon gift card).

So I can watch a few channels in the mean time, I laid the old one on a scuppernong vine. It is maybe 5 feet off the ground and I still get 14 channels. Panama City is maybe 50 miles away in line of sight.

That’s pretty GOOD! 50 miles is quite a way for digital!

Must be the vine? :)

Read up well on Amazon’s antenna offerings. Especially the customer ratings.

It’s funny how something that’s cheap can outperforming something that’s more hyped & expensive. That goes for most any product.

Generally, the old rule about if something sounds “too good to be true” applies.
