August DTA240B Portable Indoor TV Aerial With Magnetic Base & High Gain

Bought as a gift. What a fantastic aerial. It is small, compact and unscrews so will store away compactly when needed. Despite its size it is surprisingly weighty and feels well made. The magnet on it is more than capable of holding it on a vertical surface and the cable being around a metre is perfect for positioning. The signal strength is also really good, finding plenty of SD and HD channels easily. Installation is just plugging in to the aerial port on the tv, took seconds. Nothing fancy or complicated. Great value for money and highly rated. Perfect for small homes or campervan/motorhomes.

Love it. I recently hung my tv on wallnin lounge. I wanted to hide my wires. This is great because as it's magnetic it hides behind my tv on the wall. Good clear picture. Good reception. Does what it says on the tin. Very happy.

I took a chance on buying this on a Black Friday deal, despite numerous warnings of it not being returnable. I've never been able to get Freeview where I used to live, but used the Freeview website postcode checker first and it said I could get 45 channels. So I thought I'd give it a go. I live in an old house with thick walls, so thought I was taking a risk with such a little aerial (I don't have a main aerial, I only have Sky) but still, I plugged it into my bedroom TV and set it to auto scan. It took a few minutes, but 37 channels appeared and all crystal clear! Still, I was perplexed though - the website said 45 channels and I only got 37. I re-ran the tuning process several times but kept getting the same. Frustrating! Then I realised it was actually all the HD channels that were missing! Even more frustrating! And then, with a little bit of research, after holding the aerial responsible, I realised my 5 year old TV only has Freeview built in, not Freeview HD! DUH!!!! So it wasn't the aerials fault at all, despite the TV being capable of a HD picture (as in through Sky), it doesn't have a Freeview HD tuner, so simply cannot pick up the HD channels! I admit, I did feel a bit stupid! So to summarise - the little aerial is great! I've knocked off a star for the no return policy which I've NEVER seen before on Amazon Prime! It's quite shocking really and I don't understand and wonder if it's an error? There's absolutely no reason this should not be able to be returned. What I will say, is CHECK YOUR POSTCODE FOR THE CHANNELS YOU CAN RECEIVE FIRST! The website is there to help and is incredibly accurate. I tried the aerial on my newer TV and got all the HD channels as well, so indeed got the 45 channels promised. I believe in some areas it's possible to get over 100 Freeview channels! But not where I live. And that's ok because the website told me exactly which channels I would get, and hey, they're free! DON'T just expect to plug it in and be guaranteed channels, and don't expect to plug it in and for the channels to magically pop up without tuning your TV! I can't help but wonder if a lot of the negative reviews are due to user error? After all, I was blaming it for having no HD channels, and it wasn't the aerial at fault at all, it was me being thick! I'm really delighted with it, but please do check your areas service first because that no return policy is a kicker. I might even email the seller about that because I'm sure it can't be right? Can it?

Don't hesitate to buy this small but very powerful tv ariel, I have 2 of these, one in our caravan awning and one in our conservatory, what a brilliant thing it is, perfect picture perfect reception every time

Wasn’t what I expected and doesn’t do what it was intended for, ie improve viewing on some tv channels

Bought this aerial for my bedroom TV. Turns out it was one of my better decisions in that room 😂. Picks up all terrestrial stations in the UK and an uninterrupted picture. Very good. Plus it looks quite cool and is small enough to be unobtrusive.

I couldn't be happier with my purchase of the High Gain Freeview TV Aerial - August DTA240, which I bought from Amazon. From start to finish, it's been a hassle-free experience and has completely exceeded my expectations. The setup was straightforward and took only a couple of minutes. All I had to do was connect the aerial, place it near a window, and it ran a channel scan. Instantly, I was able to access a wide range of free-to-air channels, including several in crisp HD quality. The picture is sharp and vibrant, the audio is crystal clear, and I haven't experienced any interruptions, pixelation, or lag, which was a big problem with antennas I've tried in the past. The design itself is another huge plus. It's slim, lightweight, and compact, which makes it easy to position discreetly without it looking bulky or out of place. The built-in magnetic base is a really clever feature, as it helps keep the aerial stable and allows you to place it securely on metal surfaces for the best reception. The cable length is generous enough to give flexibility in positioning, which makes a noticeable difference in reception. Performance-wise, it's outstanding. I was genuinely surprised at how many channels it picked up, far more than I expected, and all of them came through with excellent clarity. For the price, this aerial offers incredible value. It saves me money every month by giving me access to plenty of free channels without the need for costly subscriptions or additional equipment. It's also perfect for anyone who wants a simple, effective solution to enjoy digital TV without fuss. Overall, the High Gain Freeview TV Aerial - August DTA240 from Amazon is a fantastic product. It's easy to use, affordable, stylish, and most importantly, it works exactly as advertised. I highly recommend it to anyone who wants reliable, high-quality reception without spending a fortune.

Easy to use, just screw the antenna into the base, then plug it in to the aerial socket on your TV. It's very small and compact, easily sits on the window ledge behind the TV, out of sight. Using the aerial though, the TV picks up all the channels but then when you try to watch, says they're not available. Seems the aerial can't pick up a good enough signal for some of the channels. However, it gets all the main channels, BBC, ITV, Channel 4, etc, so it's good enough for us.

Så enkelt och fungerar utmärkt,det är bara att plugga in i tv och Inge mer och behöver Inge ström .

Anlatılanlara inanmayın hiç bir etkisi yok. Çekim gücü hani o tel çubuk antenler varya radyo anteni gibi inanın onlar daha etkili. Paranıza yazık etmeyin

Piccola antenna, molto semplice ma con ottima ricettività

Product is nice and small, exactly as ordered. Unfortunately, it didn't help with my old TV.

Ich habe diese DVB-T2-Antenne jetzt seit einigen Tagen im Einsatz und bin absolut begeistert. Kurz gesagt: Empfang und Bildqualität sind top! Das Bild ist gestochen scharf und es gibt keinerlei Ruckler oder Pixelfehler. Auch haptisch macht das Produkt einen super Eindruck, das Material ist wirklich hochwertig verarbeitet und wirkt keineswegs billig. Für diesen Preis ist das Preis-Leistungs-Verhältnis sehr gut. Ein wichtiger Rat an alle Käufer: Meine klare Empfehlung ist, vor dem Kauf zu checken, ob es in der eigenen Gegend überhaupt möglich ist, mit einer Zimmerantenne Signale zu empfangen (dafür gibt es im Internet einfache Verfügarkeitskarten). Wenn ich mir hier die negativen Bewertungen durchlese, kann ich nur den Kopf schütteln. Die schlechten Rezensionen kommen zu 99 % daher, dass Leute gefühlt in ihrem Keller, 500 Kilometer entfernt vom nächsten Empfangsmast, ein Signal empfangen wollen und sich dann wundern, dass es nicht funktioniert. Eine Zimmerantenne kann keine physikalischen Wunder vollbringen. Ergo: Lasst euch nicht von den schlechten Rezensionen wegen mangelnder Empfangsqualität täuschen. Wer in einem ordentlichen Sendegebiet wohnt und die Antenne richtig positioniert (am besten in Fensternähe), bekommt hier ein absolutes Spitzenprodukt. Von mir gibt es eine klare Kaufempfehlung!
