What does this mean?Pros & Cons
Pros
This is by far the best antenna i've had, at least for now. Nice part is that the cord is not intergral part of the antenna so you could swap it out for a longer or shorter cord, or a beefier one if the one provided one isn't sufficient.
Thinking of messaging seller. It’s a bit pricey but does the job.
Cons

Connected to tv, plugged in amplifier, placed the antennae in the window and had tv look for channels.
Price
We bought the winegard antenna because our cable contract was ending and we didn't want to pay $60 per month for a service we hardly used.
But i figured i'd do ok and for this low price it was worth taking a chance.

With the competitor's antenna, reception was unreliable and subject to weather conditions.
I was able to get 12 additional hd channels as compared to the televisions built in antenna.

We did have to move the antenna around our basement family room to find the best spot to get as many channels as possible but fortunately the cable is fairly long and so we were able to put the antenna about 6 feet from the tv

Small command strips were provided to hang the antenna to the wall and it would be nice if an extra strip was included for a total of three strips not two as one of the two strips didnt hold very well
