Doesn’t rotate in cold temperatures. I blame this on water getting into mechanism and freezing . I highly recommend using water repellent. One that is also prevents uv damage to the plastic partsI can pick up over 50 channels. Living near the US border helps .When rotating your strictly relying on whether a channel comes in or not. There is no indication what direction it’s in. I basically find the best sweet spot and I don’t move unless it’s moved due to wind .All in all, it’s a very good device . If you find the right location , no trees around or buildings to block .Works great with a smart tv, the smart tv will set up a guide for channels.Make sure it’s mounted on a sturdy pole and attached very tight so no movement from the wind . If a signal is weak yet still comes in the channel will come in and out .

Easy to put together and worked perfectly after looking up where towers were.

This antenna works great so that we no longer have to pay those enormous cable bills. It will pull in about 15 channels in our location which is all we need.

I have been through a lot of antennas over the years including A big Winegard that cost over $100 years ago which was damaged in a snow storm, and one I had invested over $200 for with a special amplifier for fringe areas as well as a ham antenna style rotor. Neither of those setups compared in power to what I have now.In the photo you see the single antenna pointed away; that was the one I had been using up until today. I am in an area that is around 90 miles or so from some of the major network transmitters and while the single antenna worked for most of the time, stations would often drop out, and sometimes I could not receive them for hours at a time. But the worst part of these antennas in fringe areas is the rotor control built into the amplifier box that sits in the house. There is NO INDICATION at all as to which way the antenna is pointing nor for which way it is rotating. I found that lack of feedback irritating to say the least. And it is not just this antenna but ALL of these similar antennas I have had.My solution is as follows:- I purchased two additional antennas; the two Five Star antennas you see pointed towards the camera.- The "Tee" was made from 3/4" rigid EMT electrical conduit and fittings and modified with a 4th connection to hold the top antenna.- I cut the pins off the rotor connection before assembling the antennas. For the low cost of these antennas I am not concerned with the warranty. I then epoxied the rotor mechanism so the antennas could not rotate in the heavy winds we get here (sometimes over 70mph).- The three seprate coax leads each go their three separate amplifier/rotation/control boxes which came with each antenna.- The three outputs (one from each control box) were combined with an antenna combiner. The output of the combiner goes to the TV.So now I have the signal strength which is nearly three times that of just one antenna.I re-scanned my stations and got about 60 channels. I went through and it seems that they are all viable at this time, even though I will be 'hiding' some of them. I am getting some stations from the north which are generally local stations, and the major network stations among others from the south. all without using a rotor.At this time, the only negative I can say about the Five Star antennas (and why I give them 4 stars) is that the output cable from the amplifier to the TV is a fixed length and cannot be removed from the amplifier, so if it does not reach the TV you would need a Coax double-male connector and a separate length of coax. If that cable becomes damaged those of you who are handy and fearless and are armed with a soldering pencil may be able to solve that problem if it occurs. Still, I would have given it 4½ stars if I could.
