This antenna manufactured by RCA for UHF/VHF/FM is not a good antenna. I purchased one at Best Buy. What I had in mind was to use it with a converter box that is attached to a really nice, new Sony analog TV. Reception is poor, and the antenna needs to be constantly adjusted because if not adjusted, picture freezes or you see lots of little digital squares. Actually, I'm surprised because I thought RCA made decent antennas. The flat ones they make, costing about twice as much at least, are little better, but not really the greatest either. Those have to be adjusted now and then too, especially in rainy weather. It is Not the fault of this Radio Shack converter box, that's for sure. I tested this RCA antenna with a digital TV as well. Same results.
What's great about it: Nothing, poor performance.
What's not so great: Poor quality picture. It's a bad product.
