| Summary: Pretty Decent Gadget | ||
| Purchased on a lark to go with a new HDTV. Was pleasantly surprized - receive over a dozen channels - all crystal clear - with 8 of them being HD channels. I am located in the Atlanta area, 2 miles outside the perimeter beltway, and the antenna is placed near a window - all keys to good reception. If you live close to transmission stations and you want something inexpensive and amazingly easy to set up - this should work nicely for you. | ||

| Summary: Hit or miss | ||
| When it works, it works better than the amplified Terk antenna that I originally bought. Actually picked up more channels than the Trek.
When it flakes, it flakes hard. It's goes to 60% on ,40% off for no apparent reason...clouds?...passing traffic?...who knows. This can often last for 30 minutes at a time. I've gone back to the Trek just because it is more consistent, even though we have to switch over to the analog signal for ABC, and it's signal has a tendency to pixelate more frequently, just not as prone to complete drop-outs. I live just outside of Downtown Dallas, so our signal strength is pretty good. This unit will hopefully be good enough for a second set when we move next summer... or maybe I'll finally give in and get cable... |

| Summary: Simply Amazing Antenna | ||
| I recently ordered (from Amazon) an HDTV for my mom and, since she doesn't subscribe to cable, direct-tv, etc., an antenna recommended by a friend (the Antennas Direct DB2 Multi Directional HDTV Antenna). After visiting Antennas Direct website, I discovered this antenna (Antennas Direct PF7 Picture Frame HDTV Antenna) and read the reviews available here, so I decided to also order this and see which one provided the best picture.
The HDTV and both antennas arrived today. Knowing that my mom would rather have her antenna be disguised as a picture frame, I opened up this antenna first. She lives on the North Western edge of Fort Worth. The DFW metroplex antenna towers are located in Cedar Hill, about 30+ miles away as the crow flies. Despite the positive reviews, my expectations were low, because earlier research I had done indicated that it was going to be difficult to pick up signals so far away with just an indoor antenna. This antenna, on the first try, picked up every digital signal available and all at excellent strengths and without an antenna amplifier. I even added a 12' coax cable to the supplied 6' cable which somewhat weakens the signal strength before it reaches the HDTV, but that didn't make any difference. Also, the signal quality and strengths didn't vary too much with the placement and orientation of the antenna. The analog channels in the lower VHF band looked terrible, but who cares, because they are going away and who would watch the analog channel when the digital channel is available? I never even had to open the DB2 box. I would give this product 5-1/2 stars if allowed, but I'll have to settle for just 5. |

| Summary: Picture this.... | ||
| I bought this with very low expectations for our 19" kitchen LCD television. We had been using a Terk HDTVa but that was too large and just did not work that well anywhere in our kitchen. (It works great now that we moved it in our home theater room) Enter the lowly HDtv Picture Frame Antenna. I put it on the wall facing the direction of my towers and presto, all the local stations tuned right in! It really works amazingly well.
One other important thing to note is that the included wooden frame is only average in quality. However, the antenna part of the frame (the back part) is completely removable and fits nicely into most 8x10 frames. So basically, you can customize it very easily to fit any room if the plain brown frame included does not match your style. I have mine in a wide silver and blue frame and it looks great. |

| Summary: Works Great! | ||
| This antenna works great - and looks good too. I'm located around 10 miles from the transmission sources and get a very strong signal. Plus - no ugly antenna in my family room. | ||
