The 4220MHD is optimized for reception of digital TV. It comes with an easy-to-install satellite dish-style swivel mount, which can be attached to a rooftop, eave or exterior wall. The 4220MHD is classified as a Medium-sized Directional antenna.

We stay on top of new products and technologies to help people make informed choices. Features Overview: The Channel Master 4220MHD antenna is designed for UHF frequencies only (channels 14-69), both digital and analog. Mast Mounting: The antenna can be mounted using the included standard satellite mast; or it can be mounted to a traditional (straight) antenna mast. The included mast can be mounted on a roof, under an eave, or on a wall. Mounting Brackets: The antenna mounting brackets and the U-bolt are used to mount the antenna to a mast. The outer diameter of the mast should be at least 1-1/4 inches. Turning Radius: If using a rotor on the antenna mast, make sure a 12" turning radius around the antenna is clear of obstruction (the 12" turning radius assumes the antenna is mounted to a straight mast). Grounding: The antenna and mast should be properly grounded. Grounding provides lightning protection for the antenna and your TV set. Note: No grounding hardware is provided with the antenna. Connections: The balun is built-in (attached at the factory) and has a female F-type connector. The included waterproof rubber weather boot should be installed over the cable connection to guard against corrosion. A twist-on threaded F-connector is also included. Note: Coax cable is not provided, RG-6 is recommended. Operating Range: The rated range of the 4220MHD is 30 miles, but the distance is approximate, actual performance depends on too many variables to predict accurately. Gain: The average gain across the UHF frequency range is 10.2 dB. Product Reviews Review this product Thanks for taking the time to share your experiences about this product.

As for the antenna, it works great in our area. We edited out some of the 20 OTA HD and non-HD channels and the 2 analog channels from Canada. We'd have more channels with a rotator, but we already get lots of free channels via the internet. We ditched cable TV and are saving about $87/month. The antenna's already paid for itself! My only complaints about this antenna are 1) the weather boot is IMPOSSIBLE to stretch over the F connector on the coax cable. This should be a piece of heat shrink tubing or be made from an elastomeric compound having more stretch. 2) Since the antenna is mounted on our apartment balcony, the ends of the mast attachment U-bolts are a safety hazard. No plastic caps were provided to cover the threaded ends. The U-bolts are also several inches longer than they need to be! 3) The fasteners don't appear to be corrosion resistant. The serrated faces of the nuts scratch the mast paint and will probably cause it to rust. I'd give it 5 stars for city reception but only 1 star because of personal injury hazard and inadequate attention to weather boot material selection and potential corrosion/appearance issues, so overall, only 3 stars 2 out of 3 people found this helpful Was this review helpful?

I was shocked at the clarity it produces and the amount of channels it pulls in, all crystal clear. I am about 25 miles from the Wellesley Hills antenna farm on Rt 128. I have a 4-output RF distribution amplifier in line and a digital converter box. The antenna is about 8 feet above my chimney and we are on a large hill. I used 2 pole extension antenna masts and the chimney clamp plus a big spool of RF cable. I ordered all the parts from Crutchfield, great customer service. 22 out of 23 people found this helpful Was this review helpful?
