Well here in chicago I get about 65 digital channels and 4 mobile channels, I usually unscrew the antenna to prevent theft and I still have pretty good reception on most channels even without the antenna.but the number of channels that you receive Will probably depend on how far you are from broadcasting area.

I recently purchased the boyo tuner to use with my pioneer app radio. It works great, picks up local broadcast stations in Atl. Check your city to see if the local stations are broadcasting ATSC-MH because these are the only channels that can be seen while in motion. The receiver comes with an antenna, but I purchased a powered antenna and it works better but I had to modify the coax connector to sma on the antenna real easy to do bought connector at local radio shack. Overall good product

Over the past several years I find that the antenna is not the problem, but the repeater or usb adapter that has a poor signal. I am sending signals over 1/2 mile in a mobile home court (we have a lot of signal reflection/bounce) without too many problems. We are using a ASUS rt-n66u and Hawling HW3R1 repeaters or an usb adapter made by Sabrent or alpha. We have a response by the user of 3 - 5 seconds

Kind of a vague question...I haven't had any issues as of yet. Range seems good, but that can depend on the WiFi source and how many others are connected.

I do use it just for my home. I simply put the antenna on the window sill that provided the best signal. It is working quite well. (One bar improves to 4 bars almost always)

The 1.5 was always amazingly optimistic for me. I have a tower so close I could hit it with a slingshot and the specs say best reception available. From http://testmy.net Download :: 4.6 Mbps 573 kB/s up arrow Upload :: 1.4 Mbps 175kb/s at 430 am when there is probably no other demand. When I was paying for 3x it would get approx 1.5.

This phone is Net10. You need to contact Net10 directly and ask them what area they cover. I have a good reception in Massachusetts and Connecticut but I lose it when traveling through some parts of Vermont and New Hampshire.

No it did nothing for my situation. I live in a valley about 2 miles from a tower. My signal is always 2 or less & I sent this back as it didn't change the signal at all. I even had a directional antenna.

It works good for us and we live in a very rural setting. Without it being outdoors we still pick up signal. I would suggest you purchase it.

It's been reported that there can be bandwidth degradation due to the way the extender utilizes the network (frequency/channels) between itself and the main WiFi router. In my case, with a 10Mgbps DSL line in a tech shield roofed 2500+ sq. ft home, this unit works just fine. My main router is in the front office and the extender is at the farthest point in the back of the home, so that they overlap in coverage. Online Speed tests from the extender were fine while testing from phones, tablets, and laptops. I am in IT, so I understand the limitations of this type of unit, it's not a Business class AP. Those will autoswitch the device to the strongest AP, where these wont. I think some peoples problems are that they think they are connected to the extender when in fact, they are still connected to the main router. The SSID will show the same for both units, but the MAC addresses are different, so I watch the signal strength indicator on the device I am using. You can test this. Connect to the main WiFi router, then walk to where you have the extender. You should see your signal drop on your device (tablet/phone). Find the "dead" spot, turn off your WiFi (phone/tablet)and then back on. If the extender is working, you will then have a stronger signal than before. I will typically switch to the strongest signal depending on where I am in the home. This unit can still reach the front of the house though. It's not as difficult as it sounds to monitor, you just have to be conscience. For the money, it was well worth it IMO.

I bought the home unit and two others and have no problems. Depending on your house wiring, etc, quality of your signal into your home. Using Comcast as example, 5 at most, depending if anything else in on your network.

It is using Verizon lines and transmitters. That is why it is so good. Check your area, but most likely in your area, verizon, too.

I've had no reception problems with my Asha 302. One of the few places it won't pick up a signal is underground in the subway. Perhaps your workplace blocks cellphone usage due to security. Another factor could be that certain providers have coverage in particular places than others.

I installed two of these units in two different houses that are each around 2,500 square feet. One was installed in the center of the house and the entire house is covered. The second one is a one extreme end of the house and it does not reach to the far bedroom. This has NOTHING to do with the equipment. There are several Walsh and twist an turn between the interior unit and the bedroom that doesn't get the service. It goes through walls no problem but not several walls. I went from on bars to a consistent 4 bar cell signal on both AT&T; AND Verizon. This equipment is pricy but well worth it! I would spend the money and get the Pro unit instead of a unit with less power. I installed two of these units in two different houses that are each around 2,500 square feet.

I did not get any signal at all. I returned it. I tried it on three televisions, including a neighbor. Some people have had very good results I did not.

I'm not a techie, but I can't see an issue. It's good for up to 75 miles. It's the lower frequencies you lose. I'm near Niagara Falls, NY and I pull in stations from Buffalo, Hamilton, Toronto, and even Barrie ON.

Good responses from other owners. Also consider whether the radio is getting the signal at all. In my case, it didn't work except on a wall facing Colorado --in my case, west -- and had a nearby window. Now it updates consistently withno problems. If I have it in any other location, it does't receive the signal and doesn't update.

Honestly I haven't noticed any issues with the signal, I mean I've only recently been using it but that doesn't seem to have happenes yet. I live in miami maybe its just location strength?
