Has anyone out there tried the Xium dish style antenna? If so how did it preform for you and where are you.

Its a fraud: it's amazing how you can sell any old piece of excrement in the US and someone will buy it...

recognize this is an old post, I happened on this site looking for info on an antenna to replace my Xium.

I can only speak from my experience, but completely disagree the Xium antenna is a fraud device. One finds lots of "opinions" on these and very little fact when searching for info on these antenna's.

it is darned expensive yes, but for me- it has always worked well alongside with my satellite. I picked mine up years ago for $20 bucks. doubt I would have taken a chance on it for $69.00. Im talking about the basic model, not the one with a "dish"

I have tried a few of the Terk and other generic indoor and outdoor antennas, nothing has done better so far. I have used it within 10-50 miles of he signals in KS, TX, and NC. Its omni-directional.
