Please read this! There is a location bug which sometimes prevent the app from getting a location. If you experience this please try to open another app which also requires location services (like Maps or Google Maps) and wait for a location from that app. Then go back to Find Antenna and you should be able to get the correct location.
Tired of adjusting your TV aerial or constantly battling bad reception? Then give this app a try. It will tell you the direction to the best digital TV transmitters based on your current location.
The following countries are currently supported:
• USA
• United Kingdom
• Australia
• Austria
• Czech Republic
• Denmark
• France
• Germany
• Ireland
• Poland
• Sweden
The goal of the app is to be as easy to use as possible and the information level is kept to a minimum. It will only show the direction to the 5 best transmitters including information on polarization and signal strength of the transmitter. The app does not contain any information on frequencies or channels.
Please note that the application calculates the signal strength and direction based on the location of the transmitters and your mobile phone only. Obstacles between you and the transmitter (buildings, hills) which can disturb the signal availability are not taken into account.
If you are having problems using the app or have information on missing or new transmitters please let us know and we will do our best to help you out.

Latest reviews of Find Antenna app for iPhone and iPad
I want my money back
Be aware that this app is justified TV antennas (not GSM) and only for few countries. All this is clearly said in the notes so check it before you buy (unlike me...). However "TV" should be mentioned in the app name.
Olny few of dozen Polish stations/emiters.
I was testing it to locate DVB-T stations in Poland. Application is showing wrong positions of stations so it cant be use to set antenna. Also data base seems to be outdate.
I cant find lokalisation of Dvbt in Poland, wrong information about position.
