The key is placement of the antenna - be prepared to climb into your attic or onto your roof - pretty much wherever a decent signal exists. Also - the receiver will really only work on the floor of the house it's located on. Just remember - you need to locate where a decent signal already exists. If you're out in the sticks, nothing will help. You can buy the dual-band version for a bit more $ if you feel the need.
