| Summary: | ||
| For the person that rated this antenna a 1, from his post he said he lives 20-25 miles from the transmitters. What he experienced (with a 99.9% probability factor) was signal overload. This antenna is a very high gain model, that can do more harm than good at close distances. He would have been better served with a smaller antenna. | ||

| Summary: Excellent | ||
| I live directly behind some hills in a wooded area and I have tried several antennas, even the highly rated Channel Master 4228 but none of them worked for me....until I tried the 91xg. It works great, I get 75-80% signal with it and get all the channels in the area. With the Channel Master I could not receive all the channels and the ones I could get were 50%. You want a good antenna buy the 91xg. | ||

| Summary: One of the best UHF only antennas available for deep-fringe areas | ||
| The AntennasDirect XG91 is a large modified-yagi style UHF only antenna designed to be used in areas where signals are weak or severe multipath interference causes reception problems. The XG-91 is large, but is fairly lightweight, and easy to install. However, it comes completely knocked-down, and requires assembly, which should take 10-15 minutes. It is a solidly constructed antenna and should stand up to the worst weather conditions. The XG-91 is most often compared to the Channel Master 4228 8-Bay UHF antenna, and it has its advantages as well as it's disadvantages. It is lighter and easier to mount than the 4228, and it has superior ability to reject multipath, which is especially useful if it is necessary to mount the antenna in an attic. the XG-91's mounting system makes it easy to tilt the antenna vertically to help reception in very weak signal areas. Tilting the antenna vertically can often make the difference between seeing a signal and seeing nothing at all with an XG-91. The XG-91 does NOT have any reception to speak of on VHF, so, unlike the 4228, it is NOT a one-antenna solution for those people with a VHF digital station in their area. The 4228 does reasonably well on channels 7-13, making it a better one-antenna choice for those people who must live with VHF digital signals. The XG-91's signal gathering quality is top-notch, as is it's construction, and is a very worthy alternative to screen-type antennas such as the Channel Master 4228 in deep-fringe UHF conditions. | ||

| Summary: What more can I say? | ||
| This antenna has to be the longest range UHF antenna out there - I live at least 75 miles from the transmitter on Sutro Tower, San Francisco (100 driving). Not to mention I'm in the woods and have only one clear shot to the horizon to the South. Although it's not perfect this antenna does pick up all the major networks even those broadcasting at 100Kw. Personally I'm astonished but make sure you download a PDF of the instructions which is available from solidsignal.com because cryptic would be to describe using the instructions to get the antenna out of the box. Admittedly I put it up completely backwards with the corner screens facing front at first and then finally realized immediately after looking at the PDF a few weeks later that the antenna was backwards. When I turned it around and reversed the direction of all the reflectors so that they were all metal sides facing front the antenna started picking up the fore mentioned extended channels. | ||

| Summary: Pulls in distant HDTV stations | ||
| Good for reception of distant HDTV stations. Not as sturdy in appearence as other antennas I've had, but it is light weight, reasonably priced and functionally very good. It is highly directional and works best with an antenna rotator. | ||
