Within last few years I've owned and used most known amplifiers in the market : Winegard LNA-200, RCA TVPRAMP1Z , Channel Master Titan and an old Archer with adjustable gain. Some of these had select-able FM-trap. Being an engineer; I'm very through with my antenna positioning, gain setup, components I use etc. With digital TV broadcasting, there are two parameters that we deal: signal level (strength) and signal quality. At my location (using above mentioned different amplifiers); I didn't have a problem with signal level. It's the random drops on signal quality that I suffered on certain few channels (UHF 38, 39 and 48). As you know; we experience this as "pixelation", dropped audio/video. I tried all variables available to me; gain, positioning, different amplifiers. Nothing helped with such random quality drops. My tuner shows two separate bars for signal level and quality. While both of them at perfect 100%; suddenly you start getting hits at signal quality - then after a while you return to perfect signal. It's nothing to do with weather, as I had them in all kind of weather. The first step was switching to this GE amplifier. It's really ultra-low noise, that I can receive more channels at much better condition (compared to others - which some of them are at 3X cost). The product is made for GE by a Taiwanese company called Jasco. If you look at their web site; they OEM manufacture high quality electronic accessories for companies as Philips and GE. Interestingly; no numerical technical info is available for specs. They only mention "Low-noise amplification improves signal-to-noise ratio" and I certainly attest to that. It's really the best performance - compared to above mentioned amplifiers. Build quality is quite nice(design, provided AC adapter, signal injector, even the boots to cover your RG6 connectors, provided instructions etc). Product is very new; as it's only released in May 2019. At this price level, I believe that this amplifier will climb to segment leadership quite fast. It's so sad here Amazon mixes reviews of all different GE products together. On this Amplifier Amazon shows 593 reviews. But when you actually sort all those reviews for this actual product; it's only a handful. On my quest to win on that signal quality drops; I tried different filters. I tried 4G/LTE filter (thinking that nearby cell towers might be causing interference); no help at all. I tried FM-trap filter; no help. Then instead of fighting all hypothetical interference sources; I thought about actually if VHF-UHF Band-Pass Filter exists? Lo and behold it did : https://www.amazon.com/VHF-UHF-Band-Pass-174-214-470-700MHz-Special/dp/B07HQX5VT2/ref=sr_1_1?keywords=VHF-UHF+band-pass+filter&qid=1566951674&s=gateway&sr=8-1 I actually bought this cheaper from that other "bay" web site. It came all the way from Slovakia. What it does is; it only passes VHF-UHF frequencies (so it helps against your local HAM radio transmitters and anything else). It improved signal quality situation better. But I still time to time get milder drops. When we switch to 5G cell network; we'll probably have harder time with OTA TV signal quality, due to interference. ... show more

    • Piece of junk. Doesn't work out of the box.
Piece of junk. Doesn't work out of the box. Removed from system and now I get 95 channels without this!!! Do not waste your money on this. Try without it first. Amazon strikes again. The box was opened. The shipping box wasn’t even taped closed! This company is turning into a sham. If they spent more time focusing on customer service, instead of racism, they would be a lot further ahead! ... show more

    • Works great with my GE attic antenna and Fire recast
This was the special sauce that sorted out my fire recast set up. I picked up the GE attic antenna, and direct into my TV, signal was good enough, so I picked up the recast Dvr but started having weak signal issues on almost every channel. A lot of what I read made it look like the recast didn't play nice with amplified antenna signals, but this amplifier had pretty good reviews, so I figured I'd roll the dice once it was available (because it's not always available), and it appears to be worth the wait. I couldn't figure out exactly how to hook it up based on the reviews, but it's really straightforward. I bought a 1 foot coax that fits between the antenna and box, the box is zip tied to the antenna mast in the attic, and then I have my 15' coax that ran to the recast. There's a little dongle hooked up on the other end of the coax where it goes into the recast. That's where the included power supply joins the chain. No need to run electricity to an outlet by the antenna in the attic. Simple to add to my set up, and no longer getting the constant weak signal notifications from the recast, win win! ... show more

    • Great Value At A Great Price!
Ordered it on Wednesday and received it on Thursday. Very easy to install. It only took 15-20 minutes. Could've done it in less time but I had to drill two holes & get my ladder & go up & down several times. I bought this not expecting any additional channels, but to see if it would improve several channels that are good a lot of the time, but for long periods of time I would get a blue screen (reminded my of Windows old BSOD) & message in white lettering (probably my TV) that said "no signal," "no audio" or even "scrambled." Don't know what that last one was all about! It's a free over the air channel. Anyhow the channels I was hoping to resurrect have not disappeared since I installed this. And when I did a rescan I did manage to pick up some new channels. Bottom line: I went from 17 channels that are very good qualify almost all of the time to 31 channels that I have had no problem with since I turned this amplifier on. Only downside is I wish I had bought it earlier, My TV antenna is rated at 75 miles and most of the channels I receive are well within that range at 35-40 miles. If you're having problems with your reception give this one a try. It costs less than many others like it & I don't think you'll be disappointed. ... show more

    • Did not work
This particular amplifier did not help. It actually made reception worse. I installed it at the antenna as instructed but it made reception worse than without. I worked slightly better when installed near the tuner, which is contrary to the instructions, at that though, it was still worse than no amplifier at all. So it was returned. ... show more

    • GE Pro Outdoor Antenna Amplifier
I live about 60 miles from the broadcast towers and I have an old outdoor antenna from back when tv was analog. I have it up around 45 feet. I was getting pixelated pictures on most all channels until I added this amplifier. Wow, what a great improvement the GE Pro Outdoor Antenna Amplifier made. I now have a great picture on most channels. Works great and at a great price point. ... show more

    • Compared to the last signal amplifier I had this one is weak
I only get half as many channels as I did with the signal amplifier I had before. Unfortunately, I could not find another one of those. Also, the instructions were not very clear for which cable goes where, which you wouldn't think would be hard to write a clear explanation for such a simple device. Not impressed. It is too late to return it so I guess I'm stuck with it. ... show more
