Mohu Leaf Plus Amplified HDTV Indoor Antenna

The Leaf Plus Amplified HDTV Indoor Antenna from Mohu provides 10 to 15 dB of additional gain to increase signal range and improve the quality and reliability of over-the-air HDTV signals. The Leaf Plus antenna is recommended for customers who live within about 50 miles (80 kilometers) of the broadcasting towers.

The Leaf Plus features a high gain, low noise state-of-the-art pHEMT amplifier. It is optimized for both UHF and VHF stations. The Leaf will receive VHF stations but it will not be able to receive them from as far away as the UHF band stations.

You can power the Leaf Plus through the Leaf's mini-USB connector or plug a USB cable directly into the USB port on your TV, if it has one. The advantage of doing this is eliminating parasitic power consumption when the amplifier isn't needed.

Lastly, in order for the Leaf to work properly, your TV needs to be digital ready. TV's labeled HD ready or HDTV monitors are not considered digital ready. Also, do not use the Leaf Plus outdoors. Both temperature and humidity will ruin the device.
