IMPORTANT ABOUT AMPLIFIER INSTALLATION: There shouldn't be coax between the antenna and the metal amplifier module. The signal amplifier (the metal can) male's connector must screw directly onto the antenna's female connector (no coax in between as this will connect the signal amplifier backwards). This package comes with a lot of punch. Our popular YPS-500 Yagi and our high performance LNA-5000 signal amplifier together in one package! This Yagi TV antenna is designed how it's supposed to be. With correct element spacings and with gradually smaller "tapered" front elements (most competitors don't properly taper the front elements lengths, but rather make them all the exact same length just to save on product costs, which consequently harms yagi performance), whereas proper element tapering allows for a better antenna pattern and ability to better aim / focus reception towards TV stations = equals bigger signal! Note, up to 85 mile range assumes a clear LOS (line of sight) path to TV stations. "Edged" paths on the TVfool dot com website refer to terrain blocking the signal, thus can greatly effect range. This antenna is powerful enough, to get "1edge" signals if aimed in such a way to capture the reflection off of the terrain (the very small signal remnants that remain through diffraction). It's hard to predict how much these reflections are weakened, however edged1 paths are never as strong as LOS paths, thus range will be lower for those channels that have terrain / obstructions in the way. If you have channels that are "2edge" paths (which means there are multiple terrain obstructions), even the best of outdoor TV antennas will struggle with capturing these signals, thus range cannot be guaranteed for those channels with "edged" paths.
