Product Description

The FlatWave Amped Razor Thin HDTV Indoor Antenna is the most advanced HDTV antenna available. Building off the high performance US patented dual band element design of the original FlatWave, our engineers have embedded a state of the art ultra low noise preamplifier with an amazingly low 1.0 db. typical noise figure, directly at the elements where 100% of the signal is amplified; resulting in never before seen range and performance from an indoor antenna. The FlatWave Amped also features a new USB power supply with LED power indicator. When plugged into a TV with a USB for power the amplifier turns on and off with the TV, saving you energy. No need to worry if you have an older TV set or converter box because a 110V adapter is included. Designed and Made in the USA by Winegard, the antenna experts.

5.0 out of 5 stars New Flatwave Amped, March 1, 2013
This review is from: Winegard FL5500A FlatWave Amped Razor Thin HDTV Indoor Antenna (Electronics)
We finally got an HDTV set this winter so I figured it's time to test out some of these indoor antennas and eventually cancel my basic cable which was $20 a month . My goal was to get major networks ABC, CBS, FOX, NBC and maybe some public TV stations. Basic cable wasn't giving me much more than that anyway. Aside from this, I wanted an indoor antenna that can be easily concealed (outdoor was out of question for me).

I live in Rochester MN and towers are about 35-40 miles away from my house. So since most indoor antennas claim about 35 miles range I am on the outer edge of their reception.

My quest for a perfect indoor antenna started at the local stores. I ended up buying 3 of them locally and every one had to go back because I wasn't able to get local NBC affiliate which is broadcasting on VHF .

I have tried multiple antennas over many yrs at my home, including rooftop models mounted in the attic with amplifier, with poor results; unable to get good reception on one station only 9 miles away. Tried again with a new rooftop model digital antenna 2 yrs ago that could get a few stations with borderline signal strength. Often the picture would break up. The Winegard FL5500 picks up 26 channels, almost all are excellent signal strength with only 2-3 that are unwatchable. Even the formerly hard to get station only 9 miles away comes in sharp. Amazing device! Much less at Costco.
