Apart from poorly illustrated instructions I’m super impressed with the real world performance. We had one of those flat panel antennas and it was decent but still lacked digital clarity. I installed this in the identical location and the number of channels and more importantly the signal strength and clarity is excellent. Kinda nerdy and old school looks but it WORKS !

It is time to cut the cable.
Reviewed in the United States on June 9, 2017
Style: StandardVerified Purchase
I live in a suburb quite far from the city and many of the broadcast station antennas. I purchased the GE 29884 antenna a couple of weeks ago from Amazon. Along with the antenna, I purchased a PCT 4 Port Cable TV/HDTV/Internet amplifier (model PCT-MA2-4P) just in case I need it. I have been trying to "cut the cable" and stop paying expensive cable TV fees for even local basic television stations. In addition to the fees, my cable company switched to a system requiring cable TV boxes that you rent from them for $6/month per box. I have tried other powered indoor antennas and have had miserable experiences with them. Few channels could be scanned and the picture quality was dismal, or heavily pixelated, especially in the daytime hours. The few stations that I could pick up were often unwatchable. So back to cable I went.

I decided to try the GE 29884 antenna based on the reviews I read on Amazon. The antenna comes in a fairly small box labelled as Pro Outdoor/Attic Mount Antenna. The installation booklet is small with tiny "mice" type. So you might need to scan in the booklet in order to be able to zoom in on the text and illustrations. All the parts are nicely packaged and are easily identified in the instruction manual. A count of each part type is also given, Prior to installation it helps to layout all the parts including the nuts and screws, the reflector rods, dipole antenna parts, main mast, mounting parts, etc. The installation can be a bit tricky, if you follow the manual. However is you do a search on "GE 29884 antenna assembly", YouTube videos can be found that simplify the assembly process a great deal. It took me about a half an hour to assemble the antenna. One nice thing is that rubber end caps were provided to cap off the dipole rods. The antenna definitely seems to be a quality product.

I mounted the antenna in the attic, as high as possible using the provided J-mount mounting hardware and supplied M5 bolts and nuts. I disconnected the coaxial cable from the cable TV provider, and connected it to the antenna's connector located on the main mast. Using a bedroom TV, I then selected "antenna" as the input, and performed a channel scan. A total of 106 channels scanned. Most were crystal clear. Perhaps 3 or 4 were pixelated. Sure many of the channels are trash or of no interest to me (shopping channels, religious, languages I don't speak, etc) but many great channels came in beautifully including all the local channels and sub-channels, movie channels, retro, public, etc. A few audio-only channels were picked up. And I didn't have the amplifier connected.

I did wire up the amplifier simply because a signal splitter attenuates the signal from the antenna as you feed the signal to multiple TVs. The 4-port amplifier boosts the signal going to each TV.

So far, I've had the antenna for a week and I have not been disappointed. All I can say is "bye bye cable TV company". It is time to cut the cable. The antenna and amplifier will pay for itself in a month or two.

Update: 6 weeks later: This antenna works like a charm. I have cut the cord, get no more monthly cable bills, and could not be happier.

Great solution for elderly family member. works well! horrible instructions however.
Reviewed in the United States on February 10, 2025
Style: StandardVerified Purchase
Over the past year or so, my 77 y.o. elderly mother has been starting to struggle with dementia. she has gotten to the point that she normally only watches 2-3 channels max. She was using directv and we were getting frustrated with it going out frequently. I have an outdoor HDTV antenna that i put up around 2018 or so, and haven't had any issues. I figured i would order this, along with a pre-amp because we are about 62 miles from the broadcast towers. (rural area). i put this in the attic, pointed towards the broadcast towers, hooked up the pre-amp and ran the cable. immediately, received around 20 channels! Channels even worked during rain/wind/ and cloud cover. the included instructions are horrible, so you will have to go over to youtube for videos to show you how to assemble this antenna. been using it for a couple weeks with no issues. main part is plastic, so i'm not very confident it would last very long outside, however the documentation seems to hint that it's been designed for outdoor mounting, i just personally wouldn't do it. you can get coax cable, and the pre-amp here on amazon. i used a RCA brand preamp, i have one personally and it works well with my channel master antenna. it's completely ridiculous to pay 100.00 a month and up for TV service. best thing about this, it's a one time expense (cost of antenna/cable/pre-amp) and your done! never have to pay for it again. cons are you lose your dvr and so forth, but the cost savings far outweigh the negatives. go ahead and order this one, it worked out great for us! reception will vary of course (depending on terrain and how high up the antenna is mounted).
side note, i contacted our local cable tv provider for a quote for cable/DVR service for 2 rooms. i was quoted around $170.00 a month. current base package with directv (2 rooms and dvr) was costing $110.00 a month. pretty much a no-brainer here folks.
update 3/27/25*** antenna continues to work well, i would highly suggest you mount this in attic inside, the body of antenna is plastic and the sun will destroy it probably in 3 years or so. granted there is some slight signal loss, but pre-amp seems to have taken care of that part my 77 year old mother with dementia enjoys OTA tv, and remains calm and content for the most part. small price to pay to have your loved one battling a terrible illness.

MUY BUENA ANTENA EXTERIOR.... 36 CANALES DE TV ABIERTA EN MI CIUDAD.
Reviewed in Mexico on November 2, 2022
Style: YagiVerified Purchase

En mi casa tenía servicio de cable contratado para tres televisiones, pero dí de baja dos aparatos para reducir gastos. Entonces quedaron dos televisiones sin señal de cable y por tanto las conecté a una antena INTERIOR; las televisiones captaron 6 canales solamente y 3 de ellos con señal distorsionada e intermitente.... Eso las hacia practicamente inusables.
Entonces decidí comprar esta antena EXTERIOR de GE, la instalé los mas alto posible (techo de segunda planta), la orienté hacia donde estan las antenas de la mayor parte de la repetidoras de canal (en Matamoros Tamaulipas es hacia el norte), y AHORA PUEDO VER 36 CANALES DIGITALES DE TELEVISION ABIERTA PERFECTAMENTE NITIDOS sin tener que pagar cada mes por ello. Obvio que esto habla de la buena calidad de esta antena exterior de General Electric. La recomiendo ampliamente, por calidad de imagen y por su bajo costo.

A definite improvement over the antenna that I had next to the tv. Right now it's just sitting on the attic floor, but it does a great job.

Pretty discrete and super awesome signal pickup
Reviewed in Canada on December 30, 2018

I have ordered several different antennas in the last year. Those little stickup ones that are flat and go on your window or wall are absolutely useless unless you live under the local transmission tower. You have to leave it to GE to put together a high-quality product. This is a solid antenna that I installed on my roof (outside) and it discrete enough to not be a monstrosity on my roof. I used the website they suggest to get the exact heading to orient based on maximum tower transmission and used the compass on my phone to orient. Was very easy and picked up the maximum number of channels. I am about 30 km from the tower and I have to go through some trees, unfortunately. Given that, I am very impressed with the pickup and the quality of the image. I do not get the random signal drops. My only complaint is the installation instructions. I used the picture on the box to complement the instructions as they were absolutely terrible. However, it is such a simple build that anyone that has built an Ikea piece of furniture should be able to figure it out. Since the rest is so good, I still gave an overall rating of 5 stars.

AMAZON SENT ME AN UNBOXED/DAMAGED ORDER, TWICE!!!

I'm very impressed with this television antenna for its size. I just left the auto-tune on my tv to do its thing and it even picks up a tower 30km away from me, flawlessly.
It's easy to assemble, very compact and can be attached to any wall or caravan with ease.
You get everything that you need to install, but read the instructions people as there's a lot of parts in that box.
Fast & secure delivery
10/10

Cons... The birds like it better than the broken one I left above it :/
