Will i get a 58 miles away signal?

This antenna is rated for about 35 miles, I think. It won't even get that, IF you location doesn't face the direction of the towers or has tall bldgs or other things that are in the way. It all depends on environmental conditions, where your tv is, which direction your room faces, and all sorts of things. In my den, which faces south, I use this antenna and get great reception. The towers in my city are SOUTH of my house and are about 25 miles away. But the tv is my bedroom, which faces north and has windows only facing north and east, gets terrible reception. I have to use an amp, and even then, I don't get all the stations that my den tv gets with this antenna without an amp. I'm going to try a stronger amp. But it's my bedroom, secondary tv, so I'm not that concenred about it. I'm just glad my main tv in the den faces the right direction to get good reception.

Probably not with this version. Winegard does have a different version that is amplified. You might want to look into an external antenna for that distance though.

A lot depends on your environment, including antenna height, terrain, atmospheric conditions etc. Also whether you are mobile or base. I can tell you it will improve your signal significantly. I use it on my base and talk 10-30 miles out with no problem.

Not sure most of your signal is thru the sky so you should pick up a couple stations I get about 30 plus stations

I got mines about 1 mile distance, sincerely, I dont know whats in between 'cause from one point I cant even see the other point completely clear, this connection was set in the middle of a city with a lot of buildings in the middle. For sure theres some trees in the way and theres a corner of a house in the middle but I dont know if Im getting thru it or just passing very close. My signal... 85 - 100% depending on the weather.

You should get signal within 100 yards,. but 150 might have signal loss or weak connection...

I lived about 20 miles outside of a midsize city with rolling hills and mountains to our West. Our Walltenna picks up signals from as far away as 45 miles if the transmitters are high powered. I received 22 channels all relatively "local"... cable bills are way out of line, so when my wife quits her job and retires like I have we will be cutting the Cable gleefully.

It depends on your situation. If you need more range outside the house, or perhaps in a house with metal lathe and plaster that cuts down the signal range it will help. I set mine up 1/2 way between the barn & the house on the well house, & I now have several hundred feet of range.

In my opinion, if you are in or near a city, it should work well. The one I installed is located on a rooftop about 45-50 miles from the nearest station and it does fairly well. I do believe that is pushing the limit for distance, however. Make sure to use RG-6 cable for less signal loss. Hope this helps!

I am not sure. You can find out by checking out http://www.antennaweb.org/. They map the distance of any signal towers to your zip code with relative strength of signal.

Your reception depends on the distance between you and the stations you're trying to get. Ones in your area can be found here: http://www.antennaweb.org/Address.aspx Over 60 miles or so, you need a high mounted, in the clear, directional antenna. I used this site and all the stations were approximately 40 - 45 miles away over basically flat terrain. I get all that are available in this area.

At just 30 feet you would get a strong signal, yes. Not sure you need a unit with this range capability for just 30 feet and nothing blocking, maybe something cheaper would do as well. Suggest to look at the other Hawking indoor repeater units, as they would likley do the job.

I am picking up my wifi from my house to my shop ( where the cc x mile is located ) I am also able to see multiple signals from others some more than a mile away. The distance is about 500 feet and I am getting 5 bars in shop, the area is wide open space .

Richard,I am pleased with the unit and can pick up signal approx 50 metres away. Live in a 3 bedroom unit and never have a problemGood luck

I am not sure on the distance limitations. I live in a 2200 square-foot two-story. The main unit is located in my basement and receiver is above it on the first floor. I have not had any problems with the signal. I have had it for over one year and I am still very pleased with it.

Yes, it is very misleading. Radio frequencies work best on line of sight, so as long as there is nothing blocking such as buildings or high hills, 30 miles is quite possible if you have the elevation and no interference from buildings or other obstructions. Buyer beware.Regards Brian

if you are going to talk radio to radio ? then you have to consider a few things . like terrain of the land , the weather . from inside to outside a building , alot of thing effect the signal you transmit. i'm not saying you can't , but highly unlikely , and it depends on whether you use the uhf or vhf portion of radio , that will determine range too . i have been a HAM radio operator for 20 years and i understand what effects "RF' signal paths ,but 15 to 20 miles under perfect conditions ? maybe . best answer i can give you , hope this helps .

No. I can get close to 90 degrees and probably get some reception at the 180 degree direction. There isn't anything there to verify this. But the signal coming it an about 120 degrees in non-existent.
