Title: Concord TV antenna

I have an 06 Allure with the factory installed electric outside TV antenna. The new HD system seems to be very directional causing the need to re-position the antenna every time I change channels.
Has anyone had experience with the Jack Antenna, or some other brand that works better?

Thank you

Steve,

A horizontal dipole antenna is

directional. Short wave lengths mean a foot or two matters. As you change channels you also change transmitter locations. If you are in a fringe area I say tweaking the antenna is perfectly normal. We installed a booster which helped a lot. Now we get about 12 channels without having to make any antenna directional changes.
