Product Summary

Not too big, not too small.

Make the HDTV transition with the high-band VHF/UHF HBU33. This antenna has been specifically tuned for channels 7-69 and works at a range of up to 70 miles*. Most HD signals will be in these frequencies, so why put up a big antenna when you don't really need to? If your stations are within the channel 7-69 range, then this is the ideal antenna for you.

  • Optimized for channels 7~69
  • Up to 70 mile high-VHF range; 60 mile UHF range*
  • Easy "snap-open" assembly
  • Includes "no-tilt" U-bolt clamp and 300/75 ohm matching transformer

    Comments about Antennacraft® HBU33 High-VHF/UHF Antenna:

    I am a Cablevision subscriber in Northern NJ, I bought this with the Radio Shack antenna signal booster. It works great the HD picture quality is as good or better than the cable picture, I am using the antenna during power outages to be able to connect with the outside world. This is a perfect solution for these situations.A+++++++++++

      I replaced my 15 year old antenna with the HBU33 and and I have to say for the price it,s a good value. I live in northeren IL and I wanted to get the madision WI stations back, well I recived them again and my picthure is clearer and the color is better. It took me about an hour to get it all hooked up on a pole that is at end of my home.

        Replaced old broken antenna with HBU33 and lost all channels but one (ABC). Put the old one back up and all channels came back in. Returned it to store for money back. Bent dipoles on old one look good to me, at least they work.

          • Attic/Roof Mount

          Comments about Antennacraft® HBU33 High-VHF/UHF Antenna:

          Easy assembly. Roof mounted it on short mast from a dish I ditched. I had to tweak the mast pipe a bit to get it to fit by pinching it. I have a pretty good run of coax and added an amplifier. Actually started with two amplifiers/power injectors and over powered the signal. Took me awhile to figure that out after searching the web for suggestions. I've got it hooked up to two TVs. I'm pulling 80%+ signals in from transmitters from as far away as 65 miles and 45 degrees apart. Quite satisfied!

            Comments about Antennacraft® HBU33 High-VHF/UHF Antenna:

            I live in a suburb near to downtown Chicago. I laid this antenna on the floor of the attic of my townhouse, I did not even mount it, nor is it near an outside wall, and I get great reception on all channels including Channel 2 (CBS). I even split the signal between two large screen TVs and I have had no problems, even in bad weather. I tried a couple of other antennas, and they did not work at all. I could not be happier. No joke, it took me about 20 minutes from taking it out of the box to watching clean, crisp, free HD TV.

              We canceled our satelite and started the Netflicks, this will be a nice suplement. Set it up on the roof top with ease. Pulled in 10 good chanels and 30 of no use to me, so , very similar to satelite tv. Purchased a tripod and mast to help with mounting. I would recommend this item.

              I couldn't find a smaller design in the store I went to. However, this antenna gives me great reception and 27 channels on two televisions. We are very happy to get rid cable and back to ota T.V.
              I had to move some stuff around in the attic to get better reception.

                I have this antenna set up in the attic. Plan to install on roof in the spring time. Reception is awesome! No amplifier needed. Pulls in the elusive Fox signal from Bloomington. I'm located in a valley so this is why i purchased the HBU33. Very satisfied.

                Comments about Antennacraft® HBU33 High-VHF/UHF Antenna:

                I did my research on this one!

                Went with mounting this in my attic, had plenty of room up there, not being used.

                If you've been looking for an alternative, to high cable and satelite prices, then this the antenna for you.

                So, I don't get scifi channel or food network, I do believe i will survive!!!

                Don't know so much about the wife?

                Awesome antenna. My last antenna was distroyed in this past storm and I needed a replacement. NBC and CBS signals would come and go and sometimes be 0% strength with the old one. With this new antenna in the same location as before my CBS signal is averaging around 90% strength. Many of the other channels are at 100%.
