I live in a mobile home will this antenna get good reception?

I live in downtown San Francisco and it barely works here.. So I'm not sure

There are many more factors to consider. How far do you live from the station transmitters? What is the topography of your area? Where will you place the antenna inside your residence?The antenna will receive the signals that are available to it. It's up to you to place the antenna where the signals are best. Buy it and try it. If it doesn't work you can return it and try something else.

It doesnt really matter what you live in, what matters most is how far away or what terrain is in between your broadcast stations. I live about 30 miles away from the local stations and I am happy with the antenna. (also a mobile home)

Yes, it just get's it over air waves. The higher your elevation the better reception, but really it works just like the chart shows on what channels you can get for tv. We searched google to find tv antenna reception for our area to see what channels we should be able to pick up. This did very well at picking up the ones we were in range of. Still using it and happy to not be paying for cable.

Depends. I bought mine and installed it. I live in coral springs, fl, a relatively flat area, so the signals come in crisp from the local stations. the type of house you live in shouldn't matter. it's the topography of the area you live in. hills, tall buildings, etc... will effect reception.

I don't know how big the range is. It worked ok for me but the local stations are very close by. It probably average. It is going to depend where you live and the geography between you and the broadcast towers.

If you need an outdoor antenna I don`t think an indoor antenna will be strong enough. I had a flat thing too and the rca one is so much better as far as the picture goes but picking up channels it isn`t so good. I wish you luck.

It will tune in any over-the-air broadcast that your digital antenna will pick up. The key here is the digital antenna. I used one when I moved a year and a half ago, and it was fine because I had good reception in the area. Then I moved again a couple of months ago, and I couldn't pick up anything...zero...zilch...nada! Where I'm at now, I'm kind of down in a valley, and it's impossible to pick up a signal. Bottom line, it will tune anything that your antenna will pick up.

There's an awesome little tool that the FCC put together. It's a reception map that will show you a list of channels available in your area. With this antenna and proper placement in your house, you should expect to receive most of the channels with strong signal. http://transition.fcc.gov/mb/engineering/dtvmaps/

I don't think that will be a problem for you at all. We have a smaller house but live on several acres and I have been probably 20-30 yards away and still had reception. Just watch the battery. Keep it plugged in unless you need to walk off

Yes it works quite well. Line of site and type of antenna used will also have effect on this however.

Yes it will. However if you are using a park model you might be better served to use a HD antenna that would be used at any residence as you may get better reception. This antenna is made for travel trailers as it is made much smaller and rotates when you change location. It would work on a flat mobile home roof if it is not more than 5" thick. When you install or cut a hole in the roof be sure to use self leveling sealant to seal to prevent any leaks.

It says on a table but I had a really hard time. I put it in the top of a closet and got most of the channels in my area. The best reception I got was on the roof but it says to put it under the overhang Yet when you move it there it doesn't get as many channels it's now on top of the grandfather clock and still gets spotty reception I would go for a roof antenna instead but that's just in my area I live in Louisville KY. If the signals are stronger where you are you might not have a problem. Just be prepared to spend a day searching the house for a place that gets signal.

I was not able to pick anything up with the antenna in my home. I have never tried it in a mobile setting.

It's hard for me to say since I live in a metropolitan area. I will say that it worked no better than my original Mohu Leaf antenna, so I returned it. Check out http://www.antennaweb.org, you type in your zip and it will give you information about what antenna may work best and which stations you should receive.

It will perform marginally better than the little set-top antenna provided with a scanner if you place it in a window, but it's actually designed to be used on a vehicle which provides a ground plane for better reception. I didn't find noticeable improvement in signal reception using it inside at 800 mHz. It makes a big difference on top of a vehicle, as opposed to using a rubber-ducky on a handheld inside.These antennas are becoming harder and harder to find. My opinion is to buy one when you find it.

I would say NO. I returned this antenna because it would not pick up channesl 20 miles away from my home. don't waste you money on this.

For sure. I live 40-60 miles from various towers in Detroit, Toledo and Lansing, and am in the woods. Mine is hanging indoors in my attic and I still get reception. I purchased based on feedback of reception strength at a distance.

M M you got to get a good signal for your outside antenna, I have mine on a pole next to the house

Yes, it will. You will probably have to do some fine tuning, yet extend the telescopic antenna before you do so. The relative success of which may depend upon how good your current signal is or if you are located in a larger city or rural location.
