DAT BOSS Mix LR 149884 HDTV Antenna – Long Range High VHF/UHF Reception with Built-in TForce Amplifier, FM & LTE/4G/5G Filtering, Up to 100 mi Range, Power Supply Included - Made in Spain

Hands down the best TV antenna out there. I live in rural ME with a small mountain range between me and two major channels. I could always get a strong signal for ABC & NBC (rated yellow on antennaweb.org) but CBS & FOX (rated blue) were always very weak with intermittent loss of signal, depending upon the season. Summer leaves definitely caused some loss of signal compared to winter reception. I have used five different antennas (yagis, omnis, amplified, etc.) with limited success. I now get a strong green signal on all channels with no loss of signal. Assembly took about 45 minutes but was relatively easy. This antenna is not cheap but is totally worth the cost.

Receives more channels with better signal strength and quality. Amp will filter out fm radio and cell signals. Tried several different antennas, this is best. Easy to assemble, very large! You tube has assembly videos to watch.

Truly amazing antenna. Assembly was a little tricky but carefully following the instructions eventually got it together. It is installed at a location far from TV towers. The front end is pointed almost due north to a number of towers in that direction. Some are high output and one is weak output. The strong ones are between 50 and 80 miles away and come through fine. The weak one is 50 miles away and comes through most of the time. Then, oddly, 80 miles due south is a tower that comes through just fine. Tuning the direction and tilt took a while since the antenna's field of reception is extremely narrow. I tuned it on the weakest station. The construction is quite rugged. It hangs on a rope 60 feet up that is suspended between two 100 ft trees. The front of the antenna has a string to the ground that is used to set the direction and tilt. Success was not immediate. I discovered that one of my short coaxes had intermittent contact. After replacing that everything is near perfect and I receive 26 stations!

To start, this review is unbiased, I received nothing for free.Ordered this when I decided to cut the cord, so the speak. Getting rid of Direct TV and moving to OTR television with a few streaming services for premium content. Installed this antenna on top of my house, on a 20' mast, so it's about 32' from the ground. We live in a fringe area, about 60 miles from the broadcast towers for the Dallas/Ft Worth metromess. We are also in a low lying area with lots of mature trees. As it turned out, aiming it at the towers, the antenna is pointing directly at the top third of a large cedar tree, which concerned me. It arrived on time and packaged well, no damage. Unpacking and assembly was pretty straight-forward, took maybe an hour being very careful. Installation went well, I just connected to the existing coax from the dish and the first channel scan resulted in about 80 channels from the target towers, with a couple picked up from another market off the back of the antenna. 2nd scan jumped me up to 114 channels. So for my purposes, this antenna works great. It's build quality appears to be better than another antenna I put on a more remote property a few years ago, that one uses a lot of plastic pieces, where this one uses mostly metal.We'll see how long this one lasts, but right now I am very impressed. It even comes with it's own amplifier, so no added purchase beyond the proper length of coax cable is necessary. I do plan to tee it off to two additional sets in the house, but right now I am just using it for one tv on each of the outputs from the amplifier and it's working fine.I would definitely buy it again.

Located at the extreme fringe of the Seattle broadcast coverage area, we have struggled with reliable reception of upper UHF channels. Our previous setup consisted of a Range Xperts Long Range VHF/UHF antenna paired with an RCA 22 dB preamplifier, mounted approximately 35 ft above ground level on a rotor. Despite this, high-UHF signals frequently exhibited pixelation and, in marginal cases, were not detected at all.The Televes DAT BOSS HDGV was selected based on its technical reputation and design claims, particularly regarding gain, filtering, and “repack-ready” performance. In comparative testing, the difference was substantial. While height and azimuth have long been recognized as critical for OTA reception, this antenna’s provision for mechanical tilt adjustment, combined with its multi-director array, adds an additional degree of optimization that is often overlooked in consumer installations.Notably, even when evaluated at a reduced mounting height of approximately 15 ft, the DAT BOSS HDGV increased the channel count by 16 stations relative to our previous antenna system. More importantly, upper UHF channels that were previously unstable or not even detected, are now received with rock-solid reliability and visibly improved image quality.Given the FCC’s spectrum repack, which forced many TV broadcasters to shift frequencies, the Televes “repack ready” claim appears to be more than marketing language. In real-world fringe conditions, this antenna demonstrated superior performance, particularly on challenging high-UHF signals, and effectively eliminated the pixelation issues that previously impacted live sports viewing.

We live in a rural area and most TV stations are 22-50+ miles from us. I had trouble mostly getting clear reception from VHF channels. I bought this based on reviews and am now receiving better reception. It is a directional antenna so it does need to be pointing in the right direction which for us isn't a big deal since most stations are in about the same area from us. If we had stations in different areas (south and north for example) I can see where it may be annoying to keep having to rotate the antenna. The other thing is that the antenna is very large so be aware of that. I'm guessing it would work well in an attic if you lived in a major metropolitan area. It was a bit pricy but I would say it was worth it.

A huge improvement over my last rooftop antenna that started losing channels around six months agoI, I now have 25 more channels than before I see channels that I’ve never knew were reachable in my area and they come in without pixelation, had I known I would have upgraded to this years ago.

The best antenna I’ve found yet. I live in rural Wisconsin about 70 miles from almost all tv stations, and this antenna has no trouble pulling them all in. After 21 years of Dish Network’s decline in channels and raising prices, I had enough. I now get 37 over the air USABLE channels with no infomercials about Shark vacuums or knee pain that I was getting charged for and didn’t use. I’m not going to miss that.

I just set up my new Televes LR Mix. Most of the channels I was picking up now has a stronger signal strength, there’s one channel that’s was iffy to begin with that I lost completely. This is because this antenna has a more narrow beam width as my former antenna. On the other end, I’m now picking up a channel I have no business picking up.The only other disappointing situation is that I wasn’t able to receive Fox from Buffalo when I technically should be able to pick it up, but it was a long shot at about 75 miles away and a bunch of ridges in the way.I would 100% buy this antenna again, but someone in Canada should get a supply of them, because having the supplier for Canada in the USA drives up the cost.Base price of the antenna $256Then shipping from USA to Canada $84Then there are duty charges of about $125.UPS got about the same price of the antenna in shipping costs. Ridiculous.UPDATE: Since the leaves have fallen off the trees that I had surrounding my house my signal has improved. I was already impressed by the power of this antenna, but seeing what it can do when it has a clearer sight to the transmitter make me really appreciate the work it does to provide a stable signal through trees hampering the signal.

The Antenna performs very well so far. My location is behind tall trees that never allowed me to have a steady signal.This unit pulled off the channels I was expecting. Once I powered up the amp, the channels' signal level improved exponentially. Beside the unit complexity, it was easy to assemble.The bad part is that it is very directional and I will need a second unit to receive the channels located within 45 deg from the main direction. I expected that after having the same issues with all the previous antennas I had tried.I would recommend this antenna if the stations are located in a 40 mile range, and there are obstacles between the location and the TV tower.

After tracing down my Purolator package , without zero help from Purolater Sntenns was finally picked up miles from delivery location However thankfully products high level quality made purchase worth it . It’s large but light and balanced . On roof not very high . On first test it had perfect reception of the same amount of stations found on my previous one ( but HD ) . Next day with a compass I repointed it to farthest stations and wow. Double the stations all perfect. Precisely point it snd it’s amazing.

Installed for my elderly parents, who live in North York, Ontario. Getting 30 channels, all coming in crystal clear. Assembly and installation was easy. Recommended.

Best antenna I have purchased. Picking up stations 50 miles away continuously. I am able to get all US networks for free.
