Product Description

2, Pls kindly check how many DTV Stations covered in your area, then discover which local channels are available from those broadcast towers as well as the Signal Strength, the Distance to the tower, all the factors will help you to determine if you need to add Chaowei AMP1801 Amplifier Signal Booster

360 Omnidirectional Receiving SignalsWith 360-degree reception, Chaowei Portable Digital HDTV Antenna can catch signals in vertical direction which is different from the directional tv antenna which need to aim to the broadcast tower for optimal reception. |
Less than 3 Minutes to Install1, Open the box 2, Screw it into your TV’s coaxial cable port 3, Set your TV to antenna mode and DON'T forget to scan for channels! 4, Move and try to find a good spot in your house and mount it with extra long cord |
16.5feet Long Coaxial Cable1, The High Quality Standard Coaxial Cable offers users the flexibility to place the antenna where you can pick up more channels 2, The premium coaxial cable consists of a solid center conductor, dielectric insulation, 3 layers of aluminum shielding and durable outer layer. 3, Durable construction protects against Electromagnetic Interference and Radio Frequency Interference, resulting in the best picture quality and consistent performance |
Avoid Obstacles1. Please note the actual receiving range may highly depend on your distance and location. Areas with large obstructions such as valleys, mountains, etc, will reduce effective range. Always re-scan channels after moving the HDTV antenna, the result may be better. 2. We do NOT Recommend to use the amplifier or booster if your house is very close to the broadcast tower and the signal is already very strong. |
Reception Tips:
1. If you are more than 40 miles away the closest broadcast towers Or If the broadcasting signals are weak,pls try to couple with Chaowei AMP1801 TV signal amplifier, then DVB66 Digital TV Antenna will outperform an indoor amplified HDTV antenna by leaps and bounds
2. Attach the magnetic base antenna to a few iron things will help improve the reception. And the magnetic bottom makes it setting a lot more stable and sturdy than other products out there
3. If your antenna DOES NOT WORK at all,pls kindly check as follows:
- Make sure your TV has a built-in ATSC tuner (TV manufactured before 2009 have no ATSC tuner); If NO, pls get a HDTV receiver/digital converter box(set top box) to work with it;
- Make sure you install the antenna correctly on your TV and the ANTENNA/CABLE IN port is in good condition;
- Make sure there are available broadcast signals in your area, and they are strong,
- Make sure NO Obstacles in/around your house, such as heavy metal door, powerful running machine(like metro) ,working household appliances, tall trees and buildings
- Try to move it around your house or Try scans from a couple different places and angles to see where you would get the best reception.
4. If our antenna receive less channels than your old antenna, pls kindly check the signal strength and the distance to the tower to determine if you need an signal booster to boost signals and amplify the receiving range;
5. If you can't receive some Hi-V or Lo-V channels, pls check with your local TV station if those frenquency transmitted in horizontal from their transmitter, if "Yes", you may need a directional TV antenna like rabbit ears.
6. Try to mount this antenna outside or put it on windowsills for optimal reception when you found some channels out and in.

Brand: Chaowei
A very good antenna.
This antenna is designed for a tv with a modern digital tuner made after 2009. An older tv will need a converter box.
This antenna is their latest and greatest omnidirectional antenna, good for an advertised claim of 120 miles, including the amplifier. Broadcast TV signals are line-of-sight, so unless your antenna is on one mountain top, and the broadcast antenna is on another mountain top, 120 miles is wishful thinking. Even if you could overcome the line-of-sight problem, at 120 miles the amplified signal would be too weak to be usable. On Amazon, the antenna makers try to outdo each other with fantastic claims about reception distance. It is enough to make you laugh. Do not believe the advertising hype.
The older models DVB66 and DTA66 are advertised as good for 40 miles, and 80 miles if you buy the additional amplifier.
NOTE: BE SURE TO USE THE CHANNEL SCAN ON YOUR TV, TO GET ALL OF THE AVAILABLE CHANNELS. By placing the antenna on the top of my kitchen refrigerator and touching the metal cover on a table fan, I was able to get 61 out of a possible 69 stations in the suburbs between Boston, MA and Providence, RI. By placing the antenna on top of books in a built-in bookcase, near the ceiling and outside wall, I got 65 out of 69 stations, and even on a rainy day I got 53 out of 69 stations. Location and weather are your main concerns. Placing it near the top of a window should get rid of some obstruction problems, like someone walking through the room, or the next room, or the floors above you. There is a tradeoff in using the amplifier. If you are close to the transmitting tower of your favorite stations, the amplifier will be overloaded by the signal, and the tv picture will be worse.
Try scanning the stations both ways, with the amplifier and without, checking for the number of stations received and the quality of the tv picture. Try the websites: dtv.gov/maps and TV Fool to see what stations are available in your area.
Be sure to sit at least six feet from the antenna, so that your body does not cause TV reception problems. You should see less picture tiling and TV picture color shifting, as you move further away from the antenna. Also, any obstructions between the transmitting tower and the antenna, will cause reception problems. Hills, buildings, vehicles, and tree branches, are just some of the things that can cause reception problems. All it takes is a passing breeze to move a tree branch and cause a breakup of the TV signal.
One more thing to consider. If your TV is very old and only produces standard-definition 480i displays, it may be time to buy a new TV. With 4K broadcasting on the way, a new TV will display 480i, 720p, 1080i, and 4k signals. A TV cable box will work around these problems, even using an old non-digital analog CRT TV, as the cable box will include a converter to convert the broadcast signal from digital to analog for the old TV. With a broadcast antenna, you are on your own to solve the high-definition problem. A new TV is your best solution. Five Amazon stars for this white Chaowei (2000 - Latest) antenna.
While it's light years better than the TV antenna - the picture is very clean and the compact size makes it easy to place unobtrusively - the signal reception is affected by the fact that I can't put it near a window facing the antenna towers. My towers are on a mountain fairly near my house, and the signals tend to pass over my house and are hard to pick up cleanly unless the antenna is facing them. Every 10 minutes or so, the signal degrades somewhat for a few seconds, then pops back in, but I don't think other inside antennas would do much better. I'm very happy with the purchase and would buy again.
Since I wasn’t able to return as I just missed the 30 days window. I spent hours trying to change locations, facing north east where my major local cable providers are located and still nothing. I’ve put it on the highest point of my house and nothing still and out of desperation I even routed it outside on the deck and I expected that would work and was good for at least 5-20 more channels and I got 1 more. So 6 channel and it was only a mystery channel with reruns of murder she wrote. Being that this is an indoor I suspect it is not water proof and an refuse to cut a hole in my interior wall and Through my vinyl siding to watch episodes of. Murder she wrote. Sadly I tried everything and I think It’s a lost cause.
I can’t recommend this cable antenna and will leave my honest review and some examples below.
I was hoping that the smaller design and sleek look would be more appealing, appear more natural and with modern technology provide me with more then the 19-20 channels I used to get on my HD Cable that I would love tv pause. Well followed the directions and Installed as instructed and the same spot of my old 12-15 year old vintage indoor antenna and this one can only get 5 channels. I would prob have kept it as a backup if the channels were fox, cbs, nbc and maybe another local or regional but this got 3 Spanish channels like uni and telemundo and a western as well as the national weather channel. Useless for me and sadly not a good buy. I think the small size and price are indicative of “to good to be true”
I would not recommend

It DOES work, just not on the TV and location I bought it for. Moved it to a little dinky TV in the kitchen that is on the upper floor and the other side of the house and get better reception and more channels (but still not all).
It was cheap and it mostly works, and I still have it in place and connected. One of these days I'll breakdown and install a proper outdoor aerial for TV reception and can get rid of it, or maybe through it in the camper for very-occasional use.
Top reviews from other countries
Antenna claims to be able to receive signals from 360 degrees. This is simply not true. The antenna is entirely directional (I used to design antennas for a living) and only works when I "point" the antenna directly at the transmitting tower.
Overall performance is so poor that the antenna cannot even receive local stations that are no more 30km away (it did however receive stations from Buffalo NY that are well over 60kms away!!!! huh???)
All in all, I can't recommend this antenna. Perhaps adding a better RF amplifier to it would help resolve some reception/signal issues however the sheer lack of surface area to receive the broadcast signals is its downfall.
