Where I’m I? LOL

It shows the antennas on the map, but no way the compass is right. The sun goes down in the west, it’s showing that as north. Since the compass is wrong, it’s going to give me the wrong direction to point the towers. So what’s the purpose of the app? Just using my sense of direction, I had the antenna pointed correctly before even using this app.

Need larger radius!

With the improvements of amplified antennas this app needs to extend up to 175 miles rather than the 60 mile radius it currently supports. My nearest channel (other than pbs) is 80 miles away. All other channels are at the 150 mile distance. Great app otherwise.

Response from developer

We love to hear that you had a great experience with our app. Please tell all your friends to help them get more channels with their antenna.

Dose not work

Dose mot work needs to be taken off App Store or fixed. Dose not find towers......

Will not work in Australia after updates

Absolutely useless after updates. Will not work in Australia

Directional Cone lacks any real usefulness

I went to set up a Clearstream 2 indoor antenna. The antenna pointer tries to show you where to get the best reception, however that has no correlation to which towers you’re interested in. All of the towers in my area are SW of my location, yet the directional cone wanted me to face the antenna NE....it would be nice if you could allow the 30° cone to rotate with the phone, so you can capture antennas on the outer edge of the band. Likewise, in the antenna list, if you could check which towers you wanted to potentially receive reception from, and determine the directional cone that way.

We are sorry to hear you had a bad experience with our app. Our developers updated the app several months ago, if you would like to try it again. We hope you like it and will give us a better rating. Thank you!

Cannot find any transmitters!

Tried in two different locations, simply doesn’t seem to know where transmitters are located. Waste of time

Worked Perfectly

I needed a resource to help get the optimum antenna direction for aiming and this made it super easy. It had all the local tv tower locations correct for my area and once you turn on the beam angle view it tells you exactly which direction to aim a directional antenna. I was pretty far off what I assumed to be correct based on looking at a map and guessing based on where the towers were.

Works a treat

I read the previous review and as I live 10 miles to the SE of London I wasn’t expecting it to work. As it was free I thought it deserved a go.
It picked up the transmitter corridor straight away. I now have my aerial pointing in a completely different direction to before and my picture is perfect on all channels.
Easy to use.
Thanks for a really helpful app.

No Helpful

The the tower/channel I want (KXTV Sacramento) is listed in ‘Tower & Channels’ but I can’t find it on the map. The list should link to the map.

Also, the direction the map/phone is currently pointed is not listed in degrees. I can’t find my tower on the map but I know it’s around 160 degrees. Unfortunately, there’s no way to use that info with this app to orient your antenna.

What. Load of crap

As the previous reviewer has said, it doesn’t pick up any transmitters in my locale when I know there are 3 within 30 miles.
Waste of time.
