 Mohu - Leaf 50 Amplified Indoor HDTV Antenna with 60-Mile Range - Black/White
Mohu - Leaf 50 Amplified Indoor HDTV Antenna with 60-Mile Range - Black/White
Launched in 2011, this design established the trend of paper-thin TV antennas. Universally compatible with all HDTVs, the Mohu Leaf 50 offers the benefits and powerful performance of our notorious design coupled with the Jolt Switch USB in-line amplifier to reach a 60-mile range. Control TV signal amplification in real time with a simple ON/OFF switch. When it’s "on", TV signals are increased for clearer picture and sound, sometimes receiving channels beyond your antenna’s standard range. When it’s "off", amplification is bypassed while TV signals are still filtered from FM and cellular interference. When plugged into your TV’s USB port, the amplifier only draws power when the TV is on, saving energy, or use the included USB power adapter with any standard wall outlet. Perfect for suburban areas, compact living spaces, single-TV homes, dorm rooms, RVs…take this efficient antenna just about anywhere you go. Easy to set up and easy on the eyes. Multi-directional UHF and Hi-VHF elements receive TV signals from both sides, so you can show either side of the black or white reversible design or paint the Leaf antenna for a customized look. Note: The range of this antenna will vary greatly depending on the height, power, and frequency of signals coming from the TV tower, as well as the height of the antenna installation, the terrain, and obstacles between your home and the broadcast towers. Find your TV towers and channels by using our free Antenna Point app on your android or iOS device.

Live in west edge of Phoenix about 35 miles from main broadcast towers. Taped this antennae to only window on house that faces that direction and tied it to whole house cable system feeding 5 TVs across singe level 3200 sq/ft house. Antennae pulls in over 30 channels clearly and pushes signal for all but a couple weak ones across whole house,
I would recommend this to a friend!

Connect up to 4 devices to the coaxial connection from your cable or indoor/outdoor VHF/UHF/FM antenna with this mini drop amplifier. It works with the DC power provided by components, or with the AC power provided by the included adapter.

What's great about it: Outstanding picture, easy setup, light weight, very visible picture even in high sunlight areas.
What's not so great: Sound quality ois average, view angle not too wide, suggest check that in store if planning to sit to sides
Samsung TV's cost a little more but they are very good. I buy them for the picture quality and because they are highly rated for dependability by Consumer Reports. This is my second Samsung and both have crystal clear pictures, They are easy to set up. I feed Internet streaming to the TV through a BluRay player and it looks great. This model does not have too many accessory plugs on back but I knew that going in and was willing to trade for the better price I paid. This model is also surprisingly lightweight.
This product has... Easy to set up, Easy to use remote control

What's great about it: Features such as speed indication and warning, multi-lane freeway intersection diagrams automatically pop up.
What's not so great: Route recalculation logic is so badly flawed I left it home on my second trip.
Unit has some nice features and is as easy to use as all Garmin units just like our 10-year old Nuvi. However on my first trip I took an alternate route home. I was familiar with the route and it was on well established state highways. The new NUVI refused to recalculate the route and kept trying to send me backwards to the old route. If I had followed the directions it gave it would have cost me another 1-2 hours of travel time. It finally recalculated the route when I was 3/4ths of the way home. Since my next trip covered unfamiliar roads, I left the new one home and took my 10-year old unit instead. This might have been a one time problem but now I don't trust it until I can test the unit a few more times.
This product has... Large/easy to see screen, Easy menus, Inaccurate, Free map updates

lanes

does it tell the lane I should drive on if i want to exit?
On freeway interchanges and some main roads, yes, it goes into split screen and shows you lane positions with arrows, wrong lanes are grey arrows, correct lanes are bright white. This is a very nice feature on unfamilar freeways.
