Strengths: 22 stations are captured. Clear picture
Weakness: None
I tried three different models of RCA antennas and one Jessens. RCA 301 captured 7 stations. Other RCA were bad. Jessen captured 8 stations. Terk HDTVA captured 22 stations. I like this.
Strengths: Quick setup; Point it in the direction of your broadcast towers and you're ready to go, no adjusting;
Weakness: A little better design with the base would be nice; The antenna wire tucks in underneath and it's not that secure; Not sure how much the amplifier helps; It does a tremendous job without it.
I live in North Chili, NY, approximately 10.5 miles from the broadcast towers at Cobbs Hill, Rochester, NY. I am a Directv customer and have this antenna connected to my Zenith HD-SAT520 high def receiver. This receiver is able to integrate over the air signals with its existing Directv channel line-up and that really makes things easy. Let me start by saying that this antenna works flawlessly....
Strengths: Greate reception. Powered antenna
Weakness: Base Not Stable
It gets great reception. I first tried the Zenith antenna which gets wonderful reviews, but only got about 70% signal on most of HDTV channels. Then I bought this antenna thinking giving it a try and found it produces much better results than Zenith. Almost all channels are above 90%. The only complain I have is that the base is too light. The whole thing is top heavy and it very easily gets...
Strengths: A bit clearer reception on only one channel
Weakness: Turning on the amplifier bosterdoes nothing. Larger and uglier than most antennas.
I bought a $3.99 butterfly antenna at radio shack because and I find that the Butterfly one seems to work the bestin my area. I am in a small city about 25 miles alway from a major city and near mountains, so the broadcasts are from further away. The Terk antenna did get one channel better on HDTV. Otherwise mostof the non HDTV regular UHF and VHF suffered. I do not have cable so I totally rely...
Strengths: Easy to install, able to pick up a few extra channels.
Weakness: Not great looking, dipoles are too long, directional (must point to a tower)
I live in Sunnyside/Glen Park in San Francisco. Terk HDTVa Indoor is better than my rabbit ear antenna. I was able to pick up approximately 12 channels. I went and replaced the Terk Indoors with the Terk HDTV Slim Profile Antenna (box looking antenna) today. I was able to pick up 29 channels. I have not installed it on the roof yet due to a storm. However, I can imagine I can pick up more and...
Strengths: Very good reception, Decently priced
Weakness: Amplification doesn't seem to improve reception, Fixed cable
This is definitely the best antenna that I've tried and owned. I've tried about four now, and most of the others were from Radio Shack. After getting a new HDTV, I wanted to watch programs over the air, because I didn't want to pay for cable shows that I wouldn't watch. I went from having bad analong reception to having a decent digital reception. This is a completely day and night difference,...
Strengths: Great reception
Weakness: Ugly
I have had this antenna for about a week. When I first bought my TV, I also bought a Philips antenna. I only received two stations on it. I then went out and bought this antenna and what a difference. Per the www.antennaweb.org website, I needed a BLUE antenna to reach the channels I needed. The farthest channel I can get is about 52 miles away at approximately 60% signal. Don't let that scare...
Strengths: Easy to install; good; much better reception than the unamplified antenna that we were previously using.
Weakness: Dipoles are very long
Very fast service; I received the package the day after it was ordered. Set-up was very simple: just put everything together. i was immediately very impressed by the quality of reception of several channels. However, the antenna is directional; you will probably have to change the orientation for each channel that you select.
Strengths: Easy to install. Good at catching HDTV signal in the area. With the amplifier, my TV was able to catch HDTV signals from ABC, NBC, FOX, CBS and UPN.
Weakness: The cable come with the antenna is too short. Therefore, it is difficult for me to regulate the wires behind the TV stand. The signals received for ordinary channels are not impressive.
Overall, it is a great buy for HDTV owners. With modest spending on this item, they will be able to enjoy the clear pictures of HD without paying cable or satelite providers.

Wonderful!
Strengths: Able to get stations not previously available
Weakness: Takes up alot of room if rabbit ears are extended, not real stable
I love this antenna. I've tried several others, but this one blows them away. I get more channels, clearer, and it's easier to set up. I don't even have the rabbit ears extended. It works great without them. It looks nice on the table or shelf, too.
