Has anyone tried the off air atenna from dish network?

I seen on their web site where you can buy their off air atenna to pick up local hd channels. It's like $50.00. And they said they would install it for you too.
Just wondering if this option has worked for anyone else?

Save yourself the trouble.

Go anywhere and buy/try an amplified indoor antenna and give it a try.
If it doesn't work, take it back.
Then consider a roof mount antenna POINTED at your local towers.

For $50 you can get a CM 4228, one of the best.

Go to www.antennaweb.org and put in your information and it will tell you what stations you can get and what kind of antenna you need.

I think you might do well with a db4 from antennadirect.com

When I set up my dad's system 30miles south of Rochester NY, we picked up 14 digital stations. Instead of one PBS feed from analog, we had 4 in digital.

Now here in NE Mississippi. The local tv stations all transmit from an tower set that is 45 miles away. I still get digital signals but only 5 at the moment.

I use a 30year old UHF antenna in my attic pointed at the towers.
