  very good product January 6, 2009 Very easy to install and does what it claims to do, which is make a cable signal which was borderline unwatchable on some stations to ghost free. Be sure to install it where the cable feed comes into the house so it handles all jacks.
  There is a reason a $99 device is reduced to $38 January 6, 2009 When I was shopping for a stronger antenna, this device came up as something others buy along with an antenna. Made sense. Obviously, and regrettably, many other people people thought it made sense, too. A signal booster might be a good thing to buy along with a better antenna.
Wow! A 99.00 machine for 38.00. The deal seems too "good" to be "true". It is. The device cut my reception from 25 to 3 channels.
I am assured on the package that it is the same device that the pros use. And simple to install. (It was--only three steps.)
The machine might be "good"-- ... for something having to do with cables, signals and TVs. A use that some kind of "pro" would appreciate.
But it appears that one of Motorola's claims is not "true": it will not boost antenna signal. Or if it does, one must hire or be a pro to know how to Gerry-rig the 484095-001-00 Signal Booster so that it will, well, you know, boost signals. (Not being a pro I use layman's terms.)
Of course, there is another possibility: judging from other reviews, a great many of which were positive, it may be that some are good even to a novice, but a great number of these contraptions are simply defective, and it is the luck of the draw if a customer received one that actually works as advertised. In which case it is "true" that some are "good", but also that many are not--or are only so in an expert implementation unable to be appreciated by the hoi polloi.
Amazon is great about free postage on returns, but Motorola is costing Amazon money by their false advertisement and/or crummy workmanship.
If Motorola wants to make another misleading claim I have a suggestion: "The 484095-001-00 Signal Booster also works well as an attractive and inexpensive paperweight." They could write it alongside their oracular claim that the device is "the same as the one that the pros use".
  signal booster January 5, 2009 I have an outdoor VHF/UHF directional antenna and used the booser to get some of the weaker digital stations to come in better. It's not as strong as I had hoped but better than they were before. It seems the winter weather creates some of the problems because when the weather is good all the stations come in strong with no pixeling.
  Works Great until it Breaks!! January 2, 2009 I purchased this to amplify the signal from a DTV antenna on my roof before splitting the signal to 3 rooms in my house. The product worked excellently to bring in distant channels and to eliminate local channels from dropping their signal. The only problem is that the first signal booster failed after 1 month, and the replacement that was sent to me from Amazon failed after about another 6 weeks. I am hesitant to try for yet another replacemnet, but I have not found another product that works as well as this one.
  Salvation! December 27, 2008 I highly recommend the Motorola Signal Booster. After I installed a new High Definition TV and cable box in the room over my garage, I was only able to receive some of the new channels. And the channels I was able to pull in would cut out or pixelate every few seconds. After hunting around for a solution, I came across the Motorola Booster. I installed the booster between the cable splitter and the cable box. Now everything works great. My pictures are crystal clear, I receive all the channels I am supposed to and there is no noise on any of the channels.
