Where does the cable go, you extend it outside the window and let it dangle? It is a thin wire and I would barely raise the double hung window?

Yes, it dangles out the window. I drilled a small hole to extend it outside. I taped the wire with strong double sided sticky tape to the aluminum siding alongside the window to keep it more secured. This way the end is fully exposed but doesn't move much at all.

Good morning, I used the unit to keep track of the temp in another room. Just drilled a hole thru the wall, pulled the wire thru an taped it to the wall on the inside. You could use half round staples or one of many products. Enjoy it works great.==Robert

Yes it does. That is exactly how I used mine. The window I used it in was just over 2 feet high. But obviously if the window is really tall you may need an extension.

Cable is not very long. I used a splitter and connected it to the cable in the attic since I had to put the antenna in an attic window to get good reception. So yes it can be extended.

You can run the cord up and around the trim of the windshield, but my father in law just has it hanging down. Works really well, he likes it.

The antenna needs to be placed high next to a window. Make sure that all connections are snuggly tight.

I was not able to extend it fully because the wires were too tight from the cable runner. But with about slightly less than 3/4 extended it came out to 12" from the wall.

Mine is used outside and pulls down over a window. I put 2 hooks and hung it and pull in down in front of the window/casings. Works fine.

hose is extendable. I'd say enough to have your unit 3 feet away from the window

do you have any room to slide it up or down at all? do that and fish the cable thru. I wouldn't prying it off as it might break.

I just hooked it up to the TV and put it in the window upright right next to the TV--it worked on top of the TV too. It works great--really clear picture. It's thin and lightweight. Pam

It is wireless. The wire you see is the antenna, which will need to be recessed somewhere inside your window frame.

My property backs up to trees, i bought this , put 4' in depth in the ground. and this now gives my antenna the ability to go over the trees. I still have 1 section to extend. I have to guy wire it, at the height it is at now , it catches wind. I will guide wire it soon to use the full height. Hope this helps.

There isn't a place to hide wires coming down from ceiling. Only suggestion is to run wires in back of pipe and hold in place with zip ties. I mounted my cable box and gaming consoles on shelf below tv were wires are barely visible.

It's between 4-5 feet when expanded.I didn't put it in a window. Instead, I drilled a hole through the wall, and installed it with the bracket and some pcv tubing...

Yes, that's exactly how I hung mine. It comes with a long cord. Attached a plug to the end. Hung the cable from hook. Swaged some of the cord to get to the wall with the outlet, and stashed the rest.

I just hang the antenna wire up over a window or picture frame and try to use the full length in your home it does work better with the wire antenna for short wave . good luck

The cable is quite long. I use mine in my home, I mount the antenna outside and run the cable in through a window. You could use the antenna inside as well.
