The seller lists the range as "up to 100 miles" - for a $7.00 product. This makes me skeptical because even the most expensive indoor antennas ($149) only state that they offer a maximum range of 50+, or 65+ I need to have at least a 65 mile range as I...

I really doubt that it would take in that range. But, I really can't help. For I'm only about 35 miles away and it's working fine.

LOL......no basic unit will work for 2000 feet no brand. You need to pay for the 1 mile range units. Higher end 915 or 1100. You want big features and have high expectations, then you need to pay more to get more!

Don't know. I have an attic installation. Winegard's website says the HD7694P antenna is only good for 45 miles, not the 50 miles one finds its Amazon product page. If you bought a stronger antenna like one of the DB8 models, maybe you could get away with an attic installation. There are 70 to 100 mile antennas that don't cost much more, and in the attic they can bring in stations from 45 miles away--maybe farther.http://www.winegard.com/offair/vhfuhf-antennas.phpHD7694P Platinum HD Series Antenna Maximum Mileage: 45 Miles Bands: H-VHF UHFDTV.Gov Signal Levels: Strong Moderate Medium to long range yagi DTV antennahttp://www.amazon.com/s/ref=nb_sb_noss_2?url=search-alias%3Daps&field-keywords;=db8 Don't know.

Yes. I get channels from 180 miles away. About 150 air miles. Best antenna on the market.

I'm not sure of the range, but with the power output adjustments, and proper location of the transmitter (relatively high location reference to the receivers) I think you will obtain 100 feet with no problem.

Most definitely, that range is within the capabilities of this antenna. I can pick up accesspoints about 300-500 feet down my street, I have about 15 listed with this antenna and an alfa wireless usb adapter. With the built wifi card in my laptop, I have only 2 listed. You do need a wifi adapter with a reverse polarity sma connector on it to hook it to. Amazon sells these as well. I suggest a usb adapter so you can use it with a laptop or desktop

The advertise range is 60 miles. I get good (line of site) reception from stations that are about 45 miles away

I use the antenna to pull in weak local FM stations, which it does amazingly well, but I don't know the maximum range. However, customer service has always responded quickly to my questions -- you can send them a query at service@tunetrapper.com.

I do not think this device can help you at that range. The first challenge is for the unit to pick up the signal, strong enough for the display to show all three signal strength lines (which is what the instructions recommend). Only then, can you get the unit to repeat or extend the signal to its maximum new range. In my case, my objective is to enhance my signal strength on the second floor of my house. I literally had to connect the unit in an outlet directly over the room where the source router is in order to get all three signal strength marks. After that, I can say that the signal on the top floor was marginally improved. For the price paid, I guess I am marginally satisfied. I got a slightly improved signal for a small amount of money. But, again, if you expect for this unit to pick up the signal from 100 feet, and then extend it further, my best guess is that you will be disappointed. Good luck.

Supposedly. I am right on the 20 mile limit or just above it and I get two of maybe 15 channels. If this antenna will pickup more channels then it has to be high up and it is fragile so it has to be inside. I tried it in the upstairs and it did not perform any better.

We found it to not pick up a signal when we were nowhere near 1000 feet away from our house; more like only about 200' away. Big disappointment. It wouldn't pick up the signal from our house when I was just across the street in our neighbor's house, and you lose reception even faster if you have a more solid wall like plaster or brick instead of drywall. We live in a city so not sure if there were other interfering signals from home wireless networks or radio.

I'm guessing it's measured in the hundreds or thousands of miles - depending on where the sirius satellites fly! Range does not really apply to this antenna - unless you are referring to the number of miles off shore you can get and still use sat radio. In that case - I believe the answer is maybe up to 100 miles.

I'm not certain but I tend to think not..... we also at this time are Not happy with the signal range as I read before we purchased. The company replaced our unit under warrenty with a new unit which was (very nice) but the replacement had another broken antenna? And as the unit fuctions, however it does not extend beyond our previous signal which is basic.

That is a little far, this thing might not make it, you may need a higher powered AP with a separate high gain directional antenna. I've had it work well up to 200ft.

Well, if you live on the edge of a cliff on a very tall mountain and your friends are 15-20 miles away across the lake (with nothing between you but air), then yes you probably could have that conversation (I have on several occasions worked over 100 miles on UHF simplex with my handheld and the standard rubber duck antenna, but I was 9,500 feet up a mountain looking down at flat farm land in AZ). Otherwise, the other folks are correct. In "normal" conditions (and this is just a rough estimate), every watt on VHF/UHF FM equals approximately 1 mile in range, so your 1/2 watt FRS radios really only work about 1/2 mile, not the outlandish claim of 35 miles the manufacturers mark on their boxes.

Depends on what is in the way. Clear path I get good signal a quarter of a mile away, and I am only using about 45% power on mine. If you have buildings in the way the range drops. Also remember that this is a directional antenna.

15 miles is comfortably within this antenna's range. It appears though that is 20 inches at its widest and just over a foot tall. I hang mine horizontally and diagonally and it works great. Hope you can visualize that. But what is you terrain or other obstacles and is the station a low or high power station. All in all I think your chances with this product are good.
