Will this work with an indoor leaf style antenna too?

I don't see how it could do anything but improve your signal. Works great on the antenna I have put in my attic.

Generally speaking, you should get a better antenna before trying to amp a relatively poor one. Modern tuners are fairly sensitive so on a short run your concern is usually too low a signal to noise ratio, so by using a better antenna you should have higher SNR before amplifying it if that is even needed.

Try going to antennaweb.org you can enter your address and find out exactly what type of antenna to use, how far your broadcast stations are, which and how many channels you should receive. An outdoor antenna whether in an attic or behind any wall in your home will lose 1/3 or more of its power. Does your leaf antenna have an amp already? Too powerful of an amp will hurt your signal also. Typically, the best indoor antennas (those which are powered) will give you stations from 30 miles away. Any farther, its time to consider an outdoor model. Don't fall for any company claiming to have an antenna capable of getting stations more than 70 miles away. (Curvature of the Earth) I have this pre-amp with a clear stream 4 and get about 40 channels that are non-repeats and 73 channels all together. This is a great pre-amp. Consider a Flatwave powered outdoor antenna from winegard , checkout any of their products on winegard.com you can find them at Home Depot for about a $100. (There probably on Amazon too.) Winegard is the Mercedes-Benz of antennas, you can't go wrong with them.

It works best with a outdoor antenna. However for the price it cant hurt to try it..

It comes with an indoor wire antenna which can be connected. However, I did not notice any difference in reception between it and the fixed antenna.Hellmut

Will this antenna work for a 0.5W Long Range (10km) Dual Mode Stereo Broadcast Home FM Transmitter?

Your best bet would be an outdoor antenna. I have this Leaf Plus and it performs very poorly when used in the 1st floor (picking up 1 channel but keeps losing signal) and doesn't work at all in the basement. On 2nd floor, it picks up 2 channels. I have much better luck with the Rosewill indoor/outdoor amplified antenna (which you can find at Newegg for 1/2 the price of the Leaf plus) which can pick up 6 channels. I mounted the antenna outdoor on a sidewall though (but not on the roof).

I experimented with another Phillips antenna I had lying around MANT510 that I purchased from Walmart some time ago. It works well but the TV antenna connection will only accept the coax cable that you just slide in and the connection is very short. You need to find a coax that doesn't have plastic around the connection. I suspect any indoor antenna would work. Hope this helps

Not certain if you are allowed to link external sites but something like this may be helpful to determine what you need.http://www.antennaweb.org/ I have this antenna and it works great. However I am in Phoenix so I doubt I am dealing with the obstruction levels you might be. I have mine placed indoors near a window.

i do not own the antenna, it wouldn't work because we live in vally with lots of trees. i did not know who makes them, i sold the antenna!

The channels about which you're enquiring are cable channels I believe. Unless they also distribute an "over the air" signal in addition to their usual signal distributed over cable, they cannot be picked up by the leaf antenna.

Hi! At the very least, I would recommend getting a leaf antenna. Such an antenna is relatively inexpensive ($25 or so) and should help you pull in more channels. The leaf antennas are small, portable and can be purchased in several finishes to help it blend in with your decor. I got an extra long co-axial cable so I had more options to experiment with the best most effective placement. Good Luck! I hope you have success!

Yes it does, I only use regular antenna. The antenna I use is Mohu Leaf. I hope this answer your question.

I have my leaf amplified in the basement and it works great. When I just plugged it in directly to my tv I got horrible reception due to the placement of the tv. I moved the leaf on the side of my window sill which is far away from my tv and just used a cable extension. I now get tons of channels and don't pay for cable tv anymore.

I think that as long as this antenna is mounted segurely on the poll and you can get it in the right direction, it may work. I have nmot tried it with this poll.

It should. I called the manufacturer and he gave me directions on how to face the antenna toward the right area and wala it worked. The higher up you can place your antenna the better. They were most happy to help.

Buy yourself an indoor leaf antenna. All the channels you mentioned and more are free if you are in range of the broadcast arrays.

Yes it will, this is a great long range antenna, had mine for like 3 years now.

I am intrigued as to why, but there does not seem to be a technical reason why not just so long as your antenna has line of site to the towers, and the outdoor antenna can operate okay indoor. I would definitely test it first, i.e. ask for a 15 to 30 day period of return.

I have found that the antenna used indoors does not work very well.I have heard the best way to receive shortwave is to set up a good antenna outdoors and run it inside.
