Does this antenna in a house with cinderblock walls? I am 40 miles away from transmitters, but in the desert.

It works best if you stick it on a window pane directed to the transmitters.

My house doesn't have cinder block walls, but I hung mine in a window and it works well. I'm also about 50 miles from a transmitter. I have noticed that the sun position in the sky does affect some of the stations during some times of the day.

I would suggest you still try the Lava. I have one large tree in front of my home and many large trees in the back. I have had this antenna for almost a year now. The biggest factors to me are where you live and definitely the weather. The cold and rain diminishes availability of channels.

Dimple,I got this antenna for mother-in-law and she is very pleased with the reception of both UHF and VHF channels. She is receiving two channels I am aware of that are 30+ miles away on VHF.Also remember that there are factors that will affect you signal...such as obstructions, trees, mountain ranges, the height you have your antenna set up in the air, etc. Anyway, hope this helps you out.

Make sure the connections are secure and proper and the antenna is elevated high enough, this antenna works on line of sight,if there are obstructions (hills, trees , buildings etc.) it will not work as well as planned. Did you also research the programming available to you in your area? You should go to "titantv.com" and enter your zip code and see what is available in your area. My antenna still works great after several years and I do recommend it. Good Luck.

I am not sure there was any information in the packaging concerning this, and I don't have the packaging anymore. Take a look at the specs on the site and see if it has any information. I will say that I am a "dead zone" and it works pretty well. Although I do still some signal loss intermittently. I also raised the antenna very high, which seems to help. Honestly, for a little more, you can get a better antenna, but it will look "ugly" above the house.

I live in a smaller town and I can receive signals that are probably 55 miles away in different directions. I had a more expensive antenna and it didn't perform near as well. Because these are antenas, I have found placing them near a window and at a higher level on shelf above tv extends their distance ability.

Sure. For me the antenna worked better in my basement then on top of the house. Still it was very sensitive to placement. I think my local station were too close too strong and the antenna's internal amplifier was too much gain. Best advice is just to try it and see if it works for you. If not send it back. Good luck.

I'm with youColtswalker. There are transmitters that qualify under Part 15 (some sold on Amazon) but not with any sort of external antenna, so.......

I used this antenna 18 miles from the Transmission Site, and had Crisp Clear Signal when it was inside my house, not mounted. I now live 52 miles away from the same transmission site, and i have no signal even with a booster. it is a great antenna.

I can't address all the techie issues about this antenna, but it work just fine with my scanner. I've had one for two years or so and I bring in signal from 75+ miles away in the two meter range and beyond, 136- 160+mhz. Uhf comes in fine. A local, with in 40 miles, uses Uhf 400, 460mkz range and it blows in, 5x5. So my answer to your question is , yes it does a great job, a great job seeing as how I live in a very rural area.

I don't know, but can tell you that our broadcast towers are about 25 miles away..tho they are up high on a ridge with nothing in the way. It works fine at this distance.

Not certain if you are allowed to link external sites but something like this may be helpful to determine what you need.http://www.antennaweb.org/ I have this antenna and it works great. However I am in Phoenix so I doubt I am dealing with the obstruction levels you might be. I have mine placed indoors near a window.

Anytime you place a huge chunk of metal in between a radio transmitter and receiver it is going to interfere with the signal. These units have a 1000 foot "line of sight" range, once you start putting stuff in the way you decrease its range significantly.

Hello,I installed mine over a year ago and it works amazing up here in the mountains even with a steel building. I have 5 bars on my phone through out my 7,000 sq ft structure. As I remember I had to call Wilson and ask which antenna would be best for my system. I purchased whatever they told me to get...and it works awesome. If you are wondering...definitely call Wilson for your particular installation and location.

I live in a long valley. The antenna only worked in one location for us and that was not in the area where we have TV. I live about 10 miles east of San Francisco so many stations should be available. We decided to stay with comcast for now. Wish I could return my Walltenna. Charles

Sorry, I didn't keep the packaging, but this is probably avail on their website. For what it's worth, I'm ~50 miles from the transmitters, my antenna is in my second floor attic, and it works great. Not perfect - occasionally I get what presents itself like packet loss, but it's pretty rare. I'm glad I dumped cable. My .02. Good luck.

I live about 40 miles North of Dallas and it works really well. If I understand the package instructions right, this is a medium multi-directional antenna. I think it could get a signal 60 miles away, however, check out this web site: http://www.antennaweb.org/ to make sure I'm not telling you something that isn't so.
