If your idea of the Best TV Antenna is one that has the full package, then you might fall in love with the Mohu Sky 60 Outdoor TV Antenna. Mohu already makes great indoor antennas, now it’s out for making the Best Outdoor TV Antenna. It’s omni-directional, has a range of 75 miles, and an amplifier to keep the signal strong.

The Mohu Sky 60 Outdoor TV Antenna is a great workhorse in the right hands—or rather, the right environment. Its 75-mile reception range isn’t far-reaching, but it is omni-directional, and its built-in amplifier keeps the signal strong.

Performance
Powered by a power cube or USB port, the Mohu Sky 60 Outdoor TV Antenna does a surprisingly fine job of capturing HD channels. Its range is one thing, but its quality is another. This is because it has an amplifier to help it seize those channels from nearby towers, and present them to you in the clearest picture possible (weather permitting).
Ease of Install
The Sky HDTV Antenna Mohu is incredibly easy to install. It comes in two parts: the pole, and the unit itself. Screw the pole to the unit (four screws), then install the pole to your desired position. Since this is an omni-directional unit, you don’t have to accurately point the antenna to specific broadcast towers.
Durability
While it won’t win any durability awards anytime soon, due to the use of plastic and metal, the Mohu Sky 60 is an outdoor antenna, unlike the Mohu Leaf. You can safely install it to the outside of your home and never think twice, just as you can with the Antennas Direct Clearstream.
Range
Despite being more expensive than the Channel Master Outdoor TV Antenna, the range is slightly shorter at 75 miles to the Channel Master’s 80 miles. It isn’t a huge difference, largely due to the Mohy Sky 60 having an arguably better reception.
Value
It doesn’t matter how much a TV antenna offers, spending $175 on the Mohu Sky 60 Outdoor TV Antenna is a big investment. However, the Mohu Sky 60 makes an effort to offer as much as it can to sweeten the deal. It aims for quality rather than quantity, from its reception strength to its dual powering option. You also get everything you need, including the coaxial cable and USB cable, unlike the RCA Yagi Outdoor TV Antenna. If you are on a tight budget, you can opt for Channel Master Omni+ 50 which is affordable and works great.
Mohu Sky 60 Outdoor TV Antenna Wrap Up
While a bit pricey, the Mohu Sky 60 Outdoor TV Antenna aims to offer an effective and comprehensive package. Its signal strength can be superb more often than not (weather permitting), with a good 75-mile reception range. You even get your choice of dual power options: USB or power cube.
