Antop was the first antenna manufacturer to include a built in 4G LTE filter. This filter will block all 3G and 4G signals from mobile phones, tablets, wireless networks or mobile phone transmitters to ensure your noise-free digital TV reception.
By following the simple tips below, you can enjoy FREE TV with your Antop Antenna:
– Re-scan the channels after each switching of the Smartpass Amplifier.
– Scan channels monthly to find all available channels including newly added or changed.
– Do not place or hide the antenna in/behind any metallic objects.
– Install the antenna as high as possible and near a window for better reception.
– Keep the antenna away from any high power consumption devices to avoid interference.
NOTE: Antenna effectiveness is influenced by the distance from signal origination point, station signal strength level, building construction, antenna positioning, reflections from nearby structures and any power consumption sources. The amount of free over-the-air channels you can receive will vary by area and antenna selection, check signal availability at Antop Signalmaps.

Easy to set up, although it does not quite work in the omnidirectional way that is advertised. I still need some basic pointing, and if anything moves in front of the antenna, the signal goes out briefly. But! – it’s better than paying for cable!

The cable rates for the basic package keep going up. We already had internet on our smart phone and the cable modem was redundant. We got tires of paying to watch 5 commercial every 10 minutes and dropped our cable. I tried an un-amplified antenna in the attic and pulled in about 10 channels. I was surprised by the reception. Some of these station broadcast at over a megawatt in power. The Antop pulled in PBS for for State College about 40 miles away. Now we have PBS 1,2 and 3, NBC 1,2 3, and 4, CBS 1, 2, 3, ans 4, CW, and FOX. I was surprised by the simultaneous broadcast of multiple channels over the stations. PBS kept dropping out. I bent a wire under the antenna and then bent it forward for 4 inches and then up about 4 inches. It points in the direction of PBS and acts like a director. That did it. PBS comes in steady now. I also got and additional channel the christian broadcast channel. Now we have 16 in hilly western PA. The antenna is in the attic next to a window. I hope snow on the roof in the winter does not ruin the reception.
I gave it a four because I wish the amplifier was detachable. Maybe then I could tryEnergy, Cold Fusion, and Antigravity (Znidarsic Science Books) the antenna outside.

Discounted or free item
is it good or bad?
I’ll make the provider/author
either happy or sad……….
and sometimes even mad.
I was pleased to be offered this ANTOP AT-206B Indoor HDTV Antenna to test and review. We have two 1byone HDTV antennas in the house set up in a guest room and in one of the kid’s rooms. No sense paying extra for cable outlets (especially if you seldom use them) if you can get 20 or so HDTV stations for free. The 1byone amplified antennas have worked flawlessly and were very easy to set up. Currently they have a 4.0 star rating on Amazon from 2,713 reviews.
Here’s a helpful tip for those reading the negative reviews on this indoor antenna or any of the others. I had to learn this lesson by accident but what I discovered could help you avoid a very frustrating problem. Believe it or not, when you purchase an amplified HDTV antenna, there is every likelihood — especially when buying one with a long range — that the signal strength of the channels you are looking for MIGHT BE TOO STRONG to work with the amplifier switched on. SIMPLY SWITCH THE AMPLIFIER OFF and chances are, unless you have a faulty product, that your new antenna will now work perfectly. This is a simple fix that is counter-intuitive but will probably work for you.
Now here is what I found by comparing the two different antennas. Your success will vary based on your physical location and where you place the antenna. To keep it simple, I placed each antenna on a counter top (one at a time) on the second floor of our house. Nothing else was changed so the comparison should be representative of what you would find. They were not placed close to a window or mounted high on the ceiling — either of which would probably result in more channels being received.
The 1byone antenna costs $29.99, comes in white or black, has a 50 mile range and a 20′ long coax cable. The white color is nice to have since it tends to blend into the decor better. In my test situation I was able to receive 20 strong HDTV signals with good sound and clarity. It obviously is popular since over 2,713 customers have written reviews about it.
This ANTOP antenna costs $54.99, comes only in black, has a 40-50 mile range and has a 10′ long coax cable. It currently has only 16 reviews and the average rating is 4.2 stars. My test resulted in receiving 30 HDTV channels with excellent sound and clarity. The difference in picture and sound quality was notable. There are two improvements that I would make to this antenna. It would probably have a larger audience if it were offered in white and extending the cord to 20′ would allow much more flexible placement.
So which one is better? Both of them do a good job. However the ANTOP offers 33% more channels (in my comparison) and better picture and sound quality — but at almost double the cost. Lower the price of the ANTOP, offer it in white, and extend the cord to 20′, and it would be the superior product by far. However these three differences result in the subtraction of one star in my rating.
