    Free Signal TV Marathon Indoor Outdoor Antenna, Whole House 100 Mile Long Range High Performance Antenna for Digital HDTV

    • The company gave me advise on how high and the correct direction for the one channel that I had to have
    • If there is anything at all to fuss about, it would be the lack of instructions on how to position the u-bolt (used to mount the antenna to a pole) so that it comes through the bracket holes in the right direction
    • Please note, this is a 'directional antenna' and only pick up signal from one direction well
    • Once I got it pointed in the right direction and high enough off the floor, it works great!
    • We actually hired a pro to come in and install our Marathon antenna on the top of our roof, and to aim it in the most ideal direction
    • My channels kept fading in and out , turns out I had the front of it facing the wrong direction .1)
    • When you order the antenna, the company will email you the best antenna direction for your house!
    • Once installed on my chimney top and the best direction determined I now have a clearer and sharper picture than ever with TWC digital
    • You just have to find you the right location and direction to point it to get the channels you want
    • I am going to put it on a pole kit so to raise it a few feet and mainly to point it in a better direction
    • They also told me the best direction to point the antenna.
    • I could not get any signal when pointing in the right direction.
    • I used the iPhone compass app to know I was pointing in the right direction.
    • The most important thing is to place this in the right direction to get the most channels
    • Used a compass and a handy app I found to point it in the right direction, did my channel scan and viola, I'm getting 19 of the 22
    • Easy to install and it was easy to set the best direction,for the best reception.
    • The company sent me an email after I ordered, they gave me the compass coordinates for the best direction to point the antenna (they used my shipping address for accuracy), they also offered personalized customer service if I was having any problems (never had to use it because it worked right out of the box).
    • As soon as we booted ours up and placed it in the right direction, we immediately had 60+ channels, and all the major ones came in crystal clear
    • After orienting it in the correct direction my new Samsung hasn't had a second of week signal
    • Oh yes, Free Signal TV even sends you an email with the best antenna direction with compass heading for channels in your area!
    • Install was simple and directions are good.
    • I started off with a small, cheap-o omni-directional antenna that picked up a whole lot of useless channels and gave me the important ones in grainy, temperamental reception
