Best Outdoor TV Antenna On The Market

First off, this outdoor antenna is from one of the most well known and most reputable companies in the world, so you know it will be a solid product. The antenna has an impressive range of 60 miles and allows you watch premium channels including CBS, NBC, ABC, Fox, Univision, CW and PBS. It has Signal Enhancing Reflectors which drastically increases signal strength and go a long way in reducing dropouts. This technology allows the antenna to effortlessly deliver uncompressed 1080p signals for pin sharp, crystal clear images.

Further, the antenna has Broad-Spectrum reception which allows you to receive VHF and UHF stations, in other words, a lot more channels for your buck! In terms of design, the antenna is attractive with a small footprint so won’t draw a lot of attention, and it comes with mounting bracket, mast and full assembly instructions.

You can’t start talking about the 1byOne outdoor antenna without mentioning it’s truly striking and unique design. To us, it looks a lot like a butterfly, one with the benefit of delivering crystal clear TV channels for free!

The antenna has an impressive range of 80 miles (20 miles more than the GE antenna reviewed above) and allows you to watch premium channels including ABC, CBS, NBC, PBS, and Fox. The antenna lets you pull local HDTV, VHF and UHF Signals which means more channels for your money!

In our opinion, the two things that really set this antenna apart are;

Number of accessories– Unlike many antennas on the market today that don’t come with very much, this one comes with a mast clamp, a detachable amplifier, 5ft 3C2V Coaxial cable and a mounting pole.

Ease of set up – This is something a lot of outdoor antennas claim, but in the case of the 1ByOne Outdoor Antenna it really is true. Without running the risk of using too many clichés, an 8-year-old could set this up in half an hour (minus the actual clamping it to the house, for safety reasons!). The ease of setting this thing up is highlighted in the antennas marketing materials as, “Unwrap, Plug-in, and Scan channels”. We’d have to agree.

The Tree New Bee is one of the best-selling antennas on the market today for two main reasons which we’ll outline below;

Signal Quality – When it comes to signal quality this thing puts most other outdoor antennas to shame. It has a staggeringly long 120-mile range, which would be more than enough in itself, but the antenna goes even further by enabling you to rotate the antenna, 360 degrees, wirelessly, using a remote control. So, the incredibly long range coupled with the ability to rotate the antenna to get the absolute perfect position for the clearest signal puts this thing in a league of its own when it comes to achieving channel clarity.

Price – After reading the above, it wouldn’t be unusual for you to assume that this thing is in the region of several hundreds of dollars, but nope, not even close, and this is where our jaw really dropped. The Tree New Bee antenna, as of the time of writing this article, is a “rub-you-eyes-in-disbelief” low price of $36.99 on Amazon.com. We’ll let that soak in for a second. An antenna with a range of 120 meters for less than $50.00! So, it’s no surprise why it’s one of the best-selling outdoor antennas.

We reviewed its little brother above, but this older sibling (TNB-WA2805), has even more to offer, if you thought that was possible.

The antenna has a truly unbelievable 150-mile long range. This is a range that is unrivalled in this price bracket. And much like it’s smaller sibling, this one is priced incredibly well, at $36.99. Again, similar to the other one, the TNB-WA2805 can be rotated a full 360 degrees via remote control, so you can find the absolute perfect placement to receive the clearest signal and most channels.

Other features this antenna has include parabolic focusing reception, built in high gain booster and built in low noise circuit.

This one switches things up in a big way compared to the antennas mentioned above, and its design approach has paid off handsomely judging by our take on the product and the legion of die-hard fans of the product as is evidenced by the endless string of glowing reviews for it on Amazon.com

So, what’s so different about it? Well, it utilises 8 individual antennas resulting in an unsurpassed gain of 17.4 dbi, cementing it as the most powerful antenna in the world. Further, the unique, and patented brackets allow the two panels to target broadcasts at multiple directions at the same time. This results in more channels at a higher clarity. All of this makes this system not only great for urban areas but also for rural areas where heavy foliage and roofing materials often reduce the incoming signal quite dramatically.

Although the bowtie antenna system design has been around for a long time, Antennas Direct’s most unique innovation was making the system much smaller than current legacy systems whilst at the same twice as powerful. The system we are discussing here has an impressive range of 60 miles.

Although the 8-element antenna looks like something out of a spaceship so assumed to be impossibly difficult to set up, it is actually super easy and the set up doesn’t deviate much from the way other single antennas (like the ones reviewed above) are set up.

First off, we absolutely love the name! EXTREMEtenna, why didn’t anyone else think of that? The EXTREMEtenna 80 is an eight bay, phased array, outdoor antenna that is fully multi directional. This thing picks up everything, no seriously, we mean it. It scoops up both high definition and digital signals from a span of 180 degrees and a range of 80 miles. We’re talking UHF, VHF, FM and HD. Told you, the whole shebang. In terms of channels, that is major local networks such as ABC, CBS, FOX, NBC, PBS and The CW beaming onto your TV screen in glorious 1080p.

With regards to design, this antenna isn’t the smallest one we’ve reviewed so far, but it is undoubtedly the most EXTREME…sorry…we couldn’t resist. On a serious note, I believe the fact that it captures the full spectrum of signals goes a long way in redeeming its slightly larger size and less sophisticated design.

With regards to installation, we’re pleased to say it’s easy as pie to install. Most of it comes pre-assembled in the box with a built in balun allowing you to quickly and effortlessly attach an antenna mast and connect the coxial cable to your TV. It’s crucial to note however, that although the hardware to attach the antenna to a mast is included, the mast is not included and has to be purchased separately, which is a slight downer.

The 1byone outdoor antenna is a strong, robust device with a very traditional antenna design that has a remarkably small footprint.

The antenna has a respectable range of 85 miles and can pick up HDTV, VHF and UHF signals that are local and free so enables you to watch a large number of channels. And the channels hit your TV in flawless quality, we’re talking full HD, 4K and even 3D! – depending on the channel and show

Unlike many antennas in this price range the 1byone outdoor antenna comes with all the accessories you need to get this thing set up and mounted in less than an hour without spending an extra dime on anything else. It comes with a mounting pole and High Gain and Low Noise Amplifier.

Also, for peace of mind, 1byone offer a comprehensive 1 year warranty. This is really important as it shows they stand by their product and thus it’s more likely to be a highquality piece of kit. But they go one step further and offer a 30-day money back guarantee so you can test the antenna in your area to see the type of channels and quality of picture you get and if unsatisfied can return the product. We haven’t seen many manufacturers at all offering something like this.

Much like the Mohu Sky we reviewed above, the 1ByOne Amplified Outdoor Antenna is unlike any antenna you’ve seen before. It’s sleek, round and inconspicuous.

But this thing also has the brains to match its beauty. This 1ByOne antenna has a complete 360 degrees omnidirectional reception and a 60-mile range, in other words, it receives signals from up to 60 miles, from all directions without you having to manually move or rotate the antenna either by hand or remote control. All this means you consistently get the best signal possible.

This 1ByOne antenna also laughs in the face of adverse weather conditions. It holds up brilliantly against strong winds, heavy rain, and intense sunlight (thanks to anti UV coating).

Finally, the antenna supports all signals; VHF/UHF/FM. So, you get as many channels as possible in the clearest quality possible.
