why don't they make it anymore?

Had a fishbone type antenna in the attic that was directional dependent. Replaced it with this multi directional antenna and got 26 more channels than the old antenna. If the old antenna had a rotor to point it, it may have received all these channels, but when channel surfing who wants to position the antenna for every channel? My house is on a very high hill and this may improve reception for me. Still I receive channels from 70 miles out without having to point the antenna. Anyone that has to use a rotor to position their antenna should consider this multi directional antenna, no more pinpointing. Anyone considering installing an antenna should consider this antenna as their first option.

Located just under the ridge in my attic but like the other reviewers have already posted, it is not an omni-directional antenna. I oriented the antenna in the direction that anntennaweb.org suggested but the first try led to getting only a handful of fuzzy channels, Went back into the attic (in August! So much fun!) and changed the mounting so I could rotate the antenna in another direction (it only rotates a few degrees so you may have to mount the base at 90 degrees to get other angles for the antenna). Finally, success! Getting channels in HD that we never saw before.

I received it before the anticipated date of delivery. I pulled it out of the box and plugged it in and spent about an hour looking for the prime spot to get the best reception. Because our house has aluminum siding and I couldn't mount it outside, that took a while. but I finally got it.
It works better than the Clear TV that they advertise, which only found one station. This found eleven, but one is in Spanish. So I boxed up the Dish, and said goodbye to the complete signal loss every time it rained, and cut our bills back significantly
I am happy and when the summer is over, I will probably add Netflix for movies.
It looks good in our living room and is conveniently out of the way.

Hoped for 5 channels and ended up getting 9. A great antenna and a reasonable price (when it was $50 on here). I live out in the country and wanted to get something on TV just for back ground noise especially since my new wife and I just bought the house and don't have money to pay for dish and don't have the ability to get cable. According to Anntennapoint and tvfool I should have gotten between 5-9 channels and I ended up getting the ladder. The only thing was I had at lot of loss due to attenuation with 3 rooms wired for TV, my initial channel scan it didn't yield a single channel. So with some patients and gumption to crawl around the attic for a while i disconnected the three way splitter and and just directly hooked the antenna feed up to one line that goes to the living room. All in all about 125 feet of coax cable between the antenna and the amp (that comes with this) that is hooked up to the TV. With the next channel scan I found all 9 channels. I haven't touched it since and its been 3 months. I love this thing and would recommend it for anyone. I'm on here right now to buy 2 more because my parents Dish doesn't give us the football game for T-day in HD..... my antenna does, so they want one for there house instead of their dish for thanksgiving. Then the second one is for my sisters second house that is also out in the country. I'm sure the reason the price went up is because they know they can get it for this antenna because it works. I'm not saying you might not get a lemon but the one I received was great.
