Winegard Flatwave Amped Pro

I would definitely recommend this antenna if you're attempting to use an indoor antenna within 30 or 40 miles of the broadcast towers.

I tested the Winegard in three locations: right in front of where my other antenna is, at the very top of the same window, and lying flat on my TV cabinet, as shown in the marketing materials. You're likely to get the best reception if you place the FL-5000 high up on a window. In my specific environment, the FL-5000's performance was about as good as you could ask for, although it can't work any miracles

First, do NOT spend the extra $40 to get the one that connects to the app. At first, I got the app to connect to the antenna, but it wouldn't scan for channels. Then I got it to scan and it found some channels (not as many or as strong as predicted.) Set up the antenna, scanned for channels, and was...

Probably works well in a city or suburb but not in a rural environment. Note too that it only covers a small portion of VHF/UHF bands.

I live in a single family two story detached house in Morganville, NJ which is approximately 31 miles away south from New York City (NYC) where most of the broadcast TV antenna towers are located. I was able to receive 43 channels using the Winegard FL5500A FlatWave Amplified Razor Thin HDTV Indoor ...

For my precise environment. location, & reception sweet spot, I find this antenna slightly better than the Mohu Leaf or the AmazonBasics Extreme. I find it significantly better than the RCA "tile" looking antenna which was good but much less useful due to its greater weight and related less flexibil...

I bought this specific model because it is recommended by enthusiast antenna folks. Other than that, I didn't do any significant research period I compared it with the mohu brand which is much more well known, in my opinion, however it's also more expensive for the same level of specifications. When...

The antenna works ok, but it is supposed to come with an app for a smart phone that uses Bluetooth to help find the best placement for the antenna. However, to use the app, Winegard requires me to open an account and register the product. Unfortunately, their website does not allow me to register th...
