Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

I'm very happy with this device. Looking at the reviews, I think those who are unhappy with it do not understand what it does: An amplifier like this is not a magic box that will convert an unusable signal (say from a digital TV antenna) into a usable signal; rather it solves a very specific problem. Suppose you have an signal that is usable at the point of the antenna, but is NOT usable at the point where you want to use it. This might be because you have a long run of coax cable between the antenna and your TV/converter box/tuner/whatever; or it might be because you want to split the signal to feed it into multiple TV/tuner boxes/etc. If this is your situation, the device works very well. If your problem is that your signal is too weak to be useful directly at the point it comes out the antenna, even before it goes through any long runs of coax or splitters, then no amplifier in the world is going to help you out. What you need is to acquire a better signal. Depending on your circumstances, this might be done by - changing the angle/orientation of your antenna - moving it around the room (so it's nearer windows or away from metal or whatever) - moving it higher (if necessary going outside the house and onto the roof) - or getting a larger antenna with a larger collecting area.
