Heritage & History
Winegard Company was founded in 1954 by John Winegard in Burlington, Iowa, at a time when television was transforming American life and reliable signal reception was the difference between watching your favorite show and watching static. The company's engineers developed antenna designs that became the standard for residential TV reception, building a reputation for quality that spread from Iowa across the country.
For over 70 years, Winegard has remained headquartered in Burlington, maintaining an Iowa manufacturing presence through cycles of technological change — from rabbit ears to rooftop aerials to today's ultra-thin digital antennas. The company expanded into satellite systems, RV antennas, and cellular boosters, but the commitment to Iowa engineering remained constant. Winegard calls it 'pioneering American technology for over 70 years,' and the product record supports that claim.
Made in Burlington, Iowa
Winegard's FlatWave indoor antenna line carries the Made in USA designation on Amazon product pages, reflecting the company's continued commitment to domestic manufacturing. The Burlington, Iowa facility designs and produces antennas for home, RV, marine, and commercial applications.
The FlatWave FL-5000 — a paper-thin indoor antenna that hangs like a picture or mounts flat against a wall — is the flagship of a line that ranges from basic indoor models to the Elite 7550 outdoor antenna capable of pulling signals from 70 miles away. Winegard also makes the Air 360+ omnidirectional RV antenna that requires no aiming and the FlatWave Amped Pro with a built-in Bluetooth signal meter. In a market flooded with imported electronics, Winegard's Iowa-made antennas offer a domestic option backed by seven decades of signal engineering.
