We had 80+ with the indoor antenna and 100+ with our out door antenna depends on what setup you have our out door antenna had a timer and would automatically rotate at certain times of the day to line up with the tower's
I did everything, but scan my t.v. When I turned it back on to do that, everything was fine. All channels were the same. My picture was sharper. It has been two weeks now.
I bought the RCA antenna to supplement my streaming service during the NFL season. After scanning, at best it tapped into about 26 channels and that's when the antenna was temporarily placed high in a window. Because there is no hardware to do attach to the window, I would suggest using double-sided adhesive or velcro tape (don't know if that might affect the performance). Hanging it on a wall, for me, is not an option because it would be unsightly. Also, I constantly pointed it in several directions to pick up a clear signal - which did experience sporadic interference despite using the signal-finder app. Obviously, depending on your location this antenna performed as advertised for some, but not for me. Interestingly, the instructions boldly state: "DO NOT RETURN this product to the store!" Instead RCA ask that you visit their antenna help website for assistance.
Just brought this back since I could not find the sweet spot and it was too heavy to hang on wall. Im going to try their paper slim model from RCA so I can attach it to my wall. You got great results so Im hopeful if I put the thin one on wall Ill be golden.
Buy the channel master flat antenna it has a rg6 coax cable and will give yall better signal. You can build these antenna very easy as well. 2 sheets of foil a transformer cardboard to glue foil to
Help, got it set up, scanned for channels. Was scrolling up to see what channels there were and suddenly scrolling up and down showed the name of the channel, but no picture of what was on (before we did see the shows, but when a commercial came on, we decided to scroll.). Nothing was working. Frustrated, we just unplugged it. (We have had no cable for 10 years) Plugged our DVD PLAYER back in (to coax port where RCA ANTENNA was) and now DVD won't work. Help, kids out of school. Need DVD.
Did you figure it out ...what happened... is it hooked up ... I bought my antenna over a year ago and and just yesterday finally got around to installing it . At first every channel that came on was bright and clear and then I don't know what the heck happened I moved the antenna by about two in and nothing has been the same.... the channels I did get yesterday I cannot get all of them to come on ... a lot of them pixelate and just are a frozen picture and from the very beginning it only gets me NBC ; but I do not get ABC or CBS or PBS.... it's kind of frustrating and I couldn't get anybody to help me with it .
Ugh! I still can't get PBS! I am so sad! The app locator says it is out there and I even have it in the direction of the tower. The other stations are coming in crystal clear. Help!
@@TheRafcave thanks for the response. I've tried four different locations and each time I go through the TV's menu "find stations" once that is completed, I click through the channels. None of the PBS channels are coming up. Those channels in my location are 8-1, 8-2 through 8-4... Upon placing the antenna in different locations, the number of channels it has found is from 12 - 18. I think it is going to have to go back to the store... So sad!
I just bought an hdtv but one thing I seen is can't get all the channels my other tv that I bought in 2014 I can't get channels like univision telemundo but when I turn on my old tv those 2 channels are there can someone tell me why? Do I need a different antenna?
I think this product is a joke. I got nothing. My one tv won’t channel scan and the other one scans the channels but doesn’t get it together. I will definitely return this piece of garbage tomorrow at Walmart.
Make sure you scan with antenna! I had mine scanning with cable and only got 7 channels. Once I switched to antenna I got 60+ channels.

mine doesnt have a antenna setting on it

why would you olug a dvd player into a coax input?
Hello, thanks for the informative video; how do you set your DVR to record from this antenna?
That depends on your DVR device
@@TheRafcave we have it.
If the cable company left a splitter, can I use that with this antenna?
Of course!
Mine works, but I can’t get nbc for some reason
Just bought this thank you brother for helping me everything looks good I will check out more of your tutorials
Great! 😉👍🏽
what type of amplifier can you use with this model. Any suggestions or recommendations thanks
It's a built in amplifier
@@TheRafcave yes but can I add a standalone amplifier to it?. Or get an antenna w/o an amplifier
@@derrickc1353 Yes you can get a in line cable booster. Or buy a separate non amplified antenna
Mine works!! Get to watch ION tv!!
😀👍🏽
THANK YOU SO MUCH MAN YOUR THE BEST I CAN WATCH MY FAVORITE SHOW KNOW ONCE AGAIN THANK YOU SO MUCH!!
🥺💕👑
Ugh! I still can't get PBS! I am so sad! The app locator says it is out there and I even have it in the direction of the tower. The other stations are coming in crystal clear. Help!
Try different locations for the antenna

@@deborahrobinson1 Do you have a cellphone tower or airport close by?
I set my antenna up and I’m getting picture and sound perfect ........ but it’s in Spanish and I can’t change it
Change the SAP on your tv.
Learn spanish
Hi, does the antenna light stays on all the time? Thank You.
It's the power led
App crashes ! I can’t 👀 search
Anyone know how to use this with sling? I plug in the coax cable and just nothing happens
Same here
if you want local channels to appear in the sling guide, you will need an airTV
RCA is now owned by the Hearst family, as in Patty...
Who cares?
@@deborahrobinson1
He does
Fun fact
@@deborahrobinson1 I care! Thanks for the insight PalosRob: TMRC
Ok.
What else do you press after you hit menu
Im looking for the hd homerun link you said you was gonna post in your video
Posted
Can not find antenna on input
Make sure your TV has a Coaxial Input. Check your TV settings for Tuner or Air. Then program the channels.
This had no cord ?
Yes there's a cord to connect your tv and power
I cant get any channels.
Make sure your tv tuner Is In Antenna or Air mode, not cable mode. Then re scan or program the channels.
I came to see what is this thing
Thank you. will order it from home depot
My God You're fine.
🥰
I have one it didn't work at all
I just bought an hdtv but one thing I seen is can't get all the channels my other tv that I bought in 2014 I can't get channels like univision telemundo but when I turn on my old tv those 2 channels are there can someone tell me why? Do I need a different antenna?
Worth a try
Se supone que agarra los canales locales y solo agarra 5 y no aharra ni univision ni telemundo ni canal 4 ni 2 rtc
RCA FREE HDTV
I thought Chris Benoit Died?
He did
I have one just like that one, got it at Walmart. Almost 40.00 with taxes. It doesn't work nothing like you say.
I don't recommend it
Your in a bad location
Did not work
?
Too bad that APP doesn't work for Canada. Boo!
😬

Just because It doesn't work for you doesn't mean It's junk. Antennas are location and Interference sensitive.
They suck i have one and i wished i didnt buy it
All depends on location and placement. Try my other antenna, the egg.
@@TheRafcave lol
What's so funny. I'm using the egg now. Works great. 🤷🏽♂️
Too much talking, NOT GOOD
Old video dude
WTF was that????????????????????????????????????????//////////////???
You talk too much!!
That's a first! 😂
I'm sorry that I wasted my time watching you
Love life
