Buy TWO of them, and wire them in series, you'll get 360 miles then! lol

Great idea, Primestar! Love it!

Wow there are Eleven TV markets within 180 miles from me with at least one TV station,I would give up my DirecTV lol.....

Says it does both horizontal and vertical polarities. Wow! I got to get one of these.

Says it only gets 1080p. What happens if your TV station 180 miles away broadcasts in 720P? Maybe there is a mod for that?

 

[localclassictvfan]

Wow maybe I can get all the Houston Channels, Duh

 

[bobvick]

Interesting that it's 1080p, since no broadcast TV stations broadcast 1080p.

yeah there is probably 7 or 8 markets that are within 180 miles of me....the stations may not be (Fargo, Duluth).
I would need to get a couple more Tivo's then!

What about the subs that are SD only?

my antenna dose 120 miles all the time. but its 300 ohm jax, tampa. local antenna farm bithlo, fl

Well, I bet you can get 180 miles. Put it on top of a mountain, say Pikes Peak and point it at Cheyenne. Probably not a good example, as the Denver stations are almost in a direct line. But when I lived in Fort Collins, I used to get pretty reliable reception with a modest antenna from the Lookout Mountain stations in Golden. Many could be received with rabbit ears.

All a matter of height/line of sight and sufficient xmitter power.

oh I agree. Terrain is also involved.
