Every time we publish a story about cutting the cord we get a ton of interest. Whether it be a new online service or a new antenna to be used for pulling in free, over-the-air HD signals, our listeners and readers respond with great feedback. So when we found out about a new indoor antenna called the HD Blade (Buy Now $37) we were excited about putting it through its paces.
The HD blade is similar to the Mohu Leaf (read HT Guys review) in shape, both are about the same shape as a mousepad but much much thinner. The HD Blade is a little bigger in size measuring 13 X 11.5 inches.
You may be thinking the same thing we were, “Do we need another paper thin antenna?”. If so, “What makes the HD Blade worth buying?”. Solid Signal, the makers of the HD Blade, claim that it is one of the most powerful indoor antennas and one of the reason is:
The HD Blade has real silver elements embedded between two thin sheets of industrial grade plastic. The design of the elements mimic that of a long range outdoor antenna, but for the first time technology has allowed us to print metal elements on to a sheet.
