Ever heard of amplifed rabbit ears?


I bought one, a Phillips MANT310/MNT310F - didn't work
as well as the non-amplified RS one I already had.


Actually, I had to construct my own with a broadband MMIC device, to get
decent functionality ... however, my mother has an el-cheapo unit she
purchased from some yard sale, it/they work surprisingly well!

Location, reflections, etc. can vary ones experience greatly--but hey,
they usually beat a wire coat hanger! :-)
