Negative Positive
Title: disappointment
Review: I had a passive and cheap antenna. It was working fine except for occasional reception problem (freezing frames etc). I thought if I buy an active antenna these problems would go away. I am not too far from TV towers. I would say 5-10 miles.I read many good reviews about this antenna and decided to buy it. However, it was a big disappointment. As soon as I turned on amplification, the reception went down the drain. Literally, the screen froze up. When I turned off amplification, it was better. But to get the best picture, I even had to take of the power plug. So much for an active antenna... As a result, I decided to return this antenna and stick with my cheap and passive antenna.Not sure what the problem was... Maybe I am too close to the transmission towers and with amplification my TV tuner saturates... Who knows.At any rate, it may be worthwhile trying the antenna, given that so many other people are happy with it. It just did not work me.
Is the review positive or negative?
