tv aerial booster Sep 05, 2010
Did what I hoped it would do, made our tv signals morem in number and stronger strenth for the more distant stations.
 Was not the solution to my problem but works great Aug 30, 2010
Comcast tech support told me twice that the reason why my "new" HD box wasn't working was due to signal strength. They wanted to send a tech out and charge me (of coarse)for a signal booster. I did the research and found this one. It got much better reviews then the Radio Shack ones so I bought it.
Although, it worked great and just as described, the problem was that Comast gave me two defective "used" HD boxes at the walk -in center. Think maybe they should check those out before they give them to customers ? I don't need the signal boost anymore but am keeping it for a future need. Great product.
EXCELLENT Signal Booster Aug 26, 2010
Before the service we have now, we had a terrible cable television service. When they 1st installed it to One TV the picture was good. As they split the cable to add to our other TV's the picture got worse. They said that it is just the way it works. The more TV's, the lesser the picture quality.
(We lived with this mess for about 6 months)
Then a friend turned us on to the Motorola Signal Booster....WOW!!! It changed our service from a slightly grained quality to picture perfect!
Important Note> The Signal Booster should be installed as close to the point of entry into your home from the pole before it starts to split to the different locations.
LSS>We finally got sick of the outages with the cable system and went with satellite so we didn't need the Signal Booster any longer. However.....
After we had the satellite system we noticed that the signal would go out anytime that there was a severe thunder storm that passed in between our receiver and the satellite transmitter. (not very often, but....)
That got us thinking about adding an antenna to pull in the free digital over-the-air signals while we waited for the storm to pass.
(My wife is a TV addict:)
So we installed a cheap outside antenna and made it our secondary input. It worked OK and then we remembered the Motorola Signal Booster that had been sitting in a box in the attic.
Reconnected it where the coaxial entered the house from the outside antenna and, not only did it make the picture MUCH BETTER, it made stations that weren't available before come in perfectly!
I have No Idea how this little black box works, but It Just Works!
NOW, it only lasted 5 years and that is because I was lazy. We had a VERY EXTREME lightning storm a while back that fried the Booster and I'm sure it was because I didn't install the ground that the instructions said that I should have.
After that we tried to replace it with cheaper signal boosters and I have to say: "DON'T !" NONE OF THEM worked as well as the Motorola.
As of this writting I have ordered another Motorola Signal Booster. And while I'm waiting for it to arrive, I'm installing a ground wire:)
Fantastic Product.
Motorola Signal Booster 484095-001 Aug 16, 2010
This thing is well worth the money. I'm currently running a 22mb downlad/7 upload and I'm getting 36-38mb! Just using this amp right before the line(from outside) goes to the modem it boosts my signal by about 6-7 mb. It's pretty simple to setup, there's an input, an output, and a power line via coax so it can reach all kinds of far outlets. thought it's just taking up the light socket with a plug adapter in the closet where the lines are ran. Even though the techs will say the freq is out of the range my speeds are going faster, and being real time tested it's worth it.

The Motorola Signal Booster used with a homemade television antenna picks up all of the local TV stations in the Los Angeles area without any fading of the signal.
