I live in Atwater, Ca will I get Sacramento and Fresno Stations?

The answer depends on your elevation. If you are in a valley most likely you will not. If you are on a mountain top, most likely you will. However, in any instance, having a rotor on the antenna will help tremendously to fine tune the pointing to maximize the signal strength from distant cities.

I live 42 miles northwest of Chicago on flat terrain. I bought this antenna because it will go down to digital channel 7. We have two digital stations that broadcast on the VHF spectrum. I can receive 61 digital channels, although when it is overcast I will lose a few of the low powered stations. All the channels are broadcast from the Willis Tower (formerly the Sears Tower) except for channel 24 which is broadcast from the Trump tower about a mile north of the Willis Tower and not as high. I have trouble receiving the channel 24 channels, when it is overcast, windy, snow or rain. This antenna is highly directional and you really have to play around with reception strength to get the best oeverall signal strength. A quarter inch rotation of the mast can mean good reception or no reception. This is probably true of all digital stations, no matter what the antenna is. An antenna which almost as good it the Winegard Air outdoor antenna which is a powered antenna and is only a rectangular black box measuring around 16" X 16' X 2". It doesn't even look like an antenna but it works pretty darned good. More expensive though. Antenna height is an important factor for long distance reception. I think mine is about 35 feet off the ground on the roof of my house mounted using a tripod base. I'm thinking about adding 10 more feet in height. Because of the size of the Winegard antenna, I probably would not need guy wires to hold it up. No matter what antenna you use, be sure you do a channel scan right after it is hooked up. Incidentaly the winegard works surprising well inside the house at maybe 5 feet height from ground level. I've tried many indoor powered antennas which hardly work at all. Winegard makes an indoor version of this antenna, but it probably is nowhere as good.

To be honest, I don't know. Mine stays on the same station for the most part. Do not have much need to change, unless going out of town. I use this product pretty much every day and have no issues with having to switch between different stations.

I don't think so. I had to add some stations manually. it is easy to add satellites or channels. look up the frequency and add it manually

Dave here- I am not sure- it seems likely- I still can't get all the stations that I like in one setting. I must still dial in 2 sets . I'm referring to preset stations. This sure works better than the antenna AM that comes with the Receiver.

Not that I'm aware of, but that would be great. The radio is fantastic. I'm getting stations I'd never gotten clearly before. It was a big investment for me, but glad I took the plunge.

Yes, it should. I live in a mountainous area. I did pick up a few extra stations and what I did get seemed to come in clearer.

Hi Steve,To be perfectly honest, I don't know. It would depend on whether or not service is available there.Sincerely,Etta

Don't know ,but they can be set up in any cb shop.as long the frequency r the same ,I'm pretty sure it will work

Hi, Deb this is Pamela in San Francisco Bay Area... which means I probably have many broadcast towers to pick up from.... I know we are getting stations from Sacramento which is 73 approx. air miles from our location in Redwood City.

I live a good ways out of the city and I have not had a problem picking up the stations. it works great in my area. Hope this helps.
2065307
Yes. After turning the transmitter back on, the output frequency will be whatever station you left it at

Your question is vague...If you are close enough to a major city or town where there is digital broadcasting of local stations, than I'd have to say yes. To be sure ask your neighbors .

Go online to the reciva.com site. All the stations you can receive are there.

Prob. But it's junk...I have one and my stations come in whenever they want..the scree does not go in or out anymore..i had it professionally installed ..I wouldn't pay the money for it again..

Yes. First you must register your radio through Reciva.com and then look for the station you want and add it. The AM or FM station will then be able to be added to your radio.

I live in the city of Chicago and get every available station. Not sure how far away the antennae are.
