Ratings and reviews

Whether I put my physical address or use my precise location, the app tells me that I am not in the U.S. So, did Greenland or Canada purchase the United States already, and the news not report it, or is the app just messed up? I used to like the app, and I have used it in numerous locations across the United States, but not any more. Update: Unistalled, reloaded, and does not give the channels it used to. Upgraded from one star to two. Other apps give me more stations.

Worked in TV engineering for 35 years. This app has what you need to basically aim a directional or dipole antenna at the transmission towers. Out of the few apps on Google Play, this is the only one I found that accurately shows your position in relation to the transmission towers (set permissions!). Other apps do not properly read the GPS compass data from your phone. Just set the phone on top of the antenna, aim. Simple as that. Watch the beam go from red to green. Couldn't be more simple.

Limited, but all right for what it is. It works once you give it location permissions. The interface looks outdated and it would be nice to have a list of stations and their compass direction versus the map and pointing your phone toward things. Overall, the FCC antenna location website is more of what I'm looking for, so I'll just use that and uninstall this app. Also, the Terk Signal Finder app is nearly identical to the RCA one, so take your pick.
