  • Seems odd to have 3 antennas and no power supplies.

    • Hmm yeah it says it can take an input.

      OP, is yours mounted outside? Wonder how the reception would be for indoor use.

      • using inside no problem for me

        • Are you using this powered or not plugged in?

        • @Punkboy: powered havnt tried not plugged

  • Looks to be the same as this one.

      I have no idea but I have tried more expesnive indoor antenna and this is by far best I have tried. I have tested a few, for $10 a steal for what you getting. That has been my experience anyway.

      • Thanks. Just ordered 1. Worth a try for $9.90 😊

      • Did you mount it to anything or is it just hanging out behind the TV?

        • just beside tv for me

        • @supatight: Thanks, good to know. I might get my mother one.

          @Suckerzpayretail: go for the 3pack mate good to have spares once they gone they not going to restock this is old dse stock

        • @supatight: I probably would but I bought a big bad ass one when dse was going down. 😊

  • Interesting that Kogan has fired up old Dick Smith contracts. I believe he really only has rights to run a web-store with the name and url. He is even using the defunct Tandy brand.

    I don't suppose there is anyone to stop him, or even anyone left to care. Shrug.

    • Its really old stock. Would have been picked up as part of the sale. No doubt they ordered 100,000 of these in a production run and then slowly sold them off (ala their batteries)

  • Have one in one of the rooms decent antenna when plugged in. No complaints.
