I doubt it. I had it attached to the top of a window pointing in the right direction and it was still flaky. You want a clear shot and as high as possible. Antennaweb is extremely optimistic in my experience.

Don't get the Mohu Curve. Try the Mohu flat panel. I have a flat panel and it pulls in 17 channels. The Curve pulled in 6.

I have my leaf amplified in the basement and it works great. When I just plugged it in directly to my tv I got horrible reception due to the placement of the tv. I moved the leaf on the side of my window sill which is far away from my tv and just used a cable extension. I now get tons of channels and don't pay for cable tv anymore.

I would think so. My Wireless unit is on the third floor of my house and I get a good signal in the basement.

Remember, we're working with radio waves being sent through the atmosphere, and pretty much line-of-sight from a cell tower. The signal amplifier (the booster) is amplifying the signal intercepted by the antenna and sends it to the pad where the phone is to be placed. You'll have to trust L. P.'s experience working in a basement. If it works for him, it should work for you. The antenna must be outside, and as high up as you can reach with your cable for maximum effect.

I only have the DB2 hooked up now here in the chicago burbs and I get 2, 5, 7 and 9 just fine in addition to all the uhf channels.You'll really have to check it out for yourself, location, distance from signal, obstructions in the way, are you on a hill, flat or in a valley, house ,apt or condo etc etc...all are factors towards a good installation of the right antenna.

use in the entire house (4 bedrooms), great signal in the basement, back yard. Hooked up to the TV satellite dish, computer and the phone, no issues with signal.

I receive good signal from 45 miles away, my height is 25 feet above ground and have some obstruction in the distance. I use a preamp and the signal is clear.

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.

If the signal is decent in the area and it is just the receiver that you're having trouble with yes the antenna will amplify the signal and you should have better results. But if the signal is already noisy and weak you will only be amplifying noise... hope this helped ... Hauser

They recommend pointing towards the towers. I have had it in different positions and did a channel scan and did not notice a difference. I have noticed the higher it is placed the better. I get 47 channels on the main level of my house and 74 channels on the upper level. I'm going to put it in my attic.

You need an outside antenna or a good window for the regular antenna that comes with the unit. It must have a southern view. I needed to do that at 2 locations in on my property. As long as you have the antennas set up with a good southern view of the sky, you should be able to get a good signal.

I live in a basement apartment and my intercom works great. We have a rather long hall connecting the kitchen to the living room (that's where we placed ours) and the reception is great. Hope this helps.

I am sorry, but I cant help you. I am not a tech-y expert. I will advise that I have no problem with its normal performance as the signal travels between concrete walls in my home.

The range is adequate. I have it connected to my PC in the basement, and router is on the 1st floor of my house. The signal is strong and I've never lost connection.

The customer service at Amped Wireless is exceptional. I would rather have the question answered by them. The signal at my house is very good.

It would probably work but i have mine hooked to a tv and only get two channels and this is upstairs so i doubt if you<ll get good reception in a basement

Your best bet would be an outdoor antenna. I have this Leaf Plus and it performs very poorly when used in the 1st floor (picking up 1 channel but keeps losing signal) and doesn't work at all in the basement. On 2nd floor, it picks up 2 channels. I have much better luck with the Rosewill indoor/outdoor amplified antenna (which you can find at Newegg for 1/2 the price of the Leaf plus) which can pick up 6 channels. I mounted the antenna outdoor on a sidewall though (but not on the roof).
