Summary: V-21 Antenna
I have had this antenna for about a year. It is an EXCELLENT antenna. Well made and delivers what they say it will do. I use it to get stations from DFW (Dallas) about 70 miles away with good results. I do have an amp on the antenna and tropo does have a lot to do with reception. I would highly recommend this antenna to anyone as it is well built and designed. If you live 50 miles away from the transmitter site then this antenna should provide over the top reception of all HDTV stations. I would highly recommend this antenna !

Summary: Good for fringe VHF
I bought this antenna to compliment my hi-gain UHF Antenna Antennas Direct 91XG Uni-directional HDTV Antenna and pick-up a couple low-VHF HD stations. I've mounted both in my attic and can pull signal from towers ~45 miles away using a Winegard AP-2870 Dual Input Pre-Amplifier. The antenna alone was able to pull strong/direct channels reliably; the amplifier simply made more channels reliable. I'd almost certainly get better reception moving the antennas out of the attic, I simply don't want the maintenance/risk of damage from mounting them outside.
A word of caution- this thing is HUGE. The little picture makes it look cute, maybe you could hide it behind the sectional or maybe behind the drapes? NO. You cannot park this in a compact parking spot. Do yourself a favor and DO NOT extend the elements before installing in the attic, if you go that route. Also make sure you have a large enough attic. Remember the narrow end is pointed towards the tower- It will work reversed, just not as well.

Summary: Terrestrial Digital v21 antenna
Have not installed it yet.Appears to be well built,however,package was smashed on one end and taped up with insulator smashed,element bent and element end plug missing. Since it was taped up, damaged item was sent or damaged along the way.Customer service scheduled to send me insulator but still have to straighten two elements and find one end plug.

Summary: Nice high gain antenna for the price
With this antenna on my roof I am able to pull in the PBS station that broadcasts from 36 miles away and is partially obscured by closer transmitters. I like my free over the air (OTA) high definition HDTV. I get a lot of great programming, more than I have time to watch. I think the cable and phone companies prices are just too high for what they offer. This antenna cost me just over two hundred bucks to install including the antenna mount, grounding rod, wiring, 2.3 GHZ splitters and lighting arrestor. I pay only twenty bucks a month now with my Ooma free home phone service, my HDTV antenna, and my "value" level broad band internet. My T-mobile prepaid cell phone at the gold level costs me about eight to twelve bucks per month. Yes, you can live the good life for less!

Summary: Great Antenna for HDTV
A little complicated of an install for 4 TV's off one Antenna when there was nothing to start, but sure beats rabbit ears! Only complaint is how directional it is. I have on channel that is offline from the others, and I don't get it at all. But if I am it to receive that one, I loose all the others. Make sure you need such a directioanl antenna. Otherwise, A+++
