Lately we have been dealing with an increasing number of attempts to manipulate antennas ranking. Note: each person is allowed to post one and only one review for each antenna model. Exceptions can be made only under special circumstances when the reviewer feels that his earlier review must be corrected.
We have a sophisticated manipulation detection system in place and we will not tolerate any attempt to game the system and mislead consumers and our visitors. We reserve the right to delete any review that we feel is misleading or inappropriate and do that at our sole discretion. Thanks for understanding.
Also, from now on we require all reviews to be at least 100 words long. Short reviews, such as "a piece of junk" or "works as advertised" are not very helpful. Consider specifying more details. Elaborate on your location, the equipment you are using, reception quality of specific channels in your area. Check the word counter at the bottom when writing.

| Summary: Great reception | ||
| We live in Georgetown, Texas area. Because we have a metal roof, I had to install the 4228HD on a pole. Made sure directed in recommended heading, used handheld GPS device. We receive 18 channels, with two stations 50 miles away. We do not reside on a hill, but rather in a lower area. Did not require amplifying. Very pleased with results. Free HDTV is super. Receive channels 7.1, 9.1, 10.1, 18.1, 24.1, 25.1, 36.1, 42.1, 46.1, 54.1, 62.1. In all, local stations from major networks, two weather stations, five PBS stations, three spanish speaking stations. Good selection of antenna. Will have to see how well it holds up. | ||

| Summary: The "new" 4228HD is a cheaply made chinese knockoff. | ||
| The old 4228, made in the US (like the one in the picture) was an excellent antenna. Sadly, Channel Master company sold out and moved their factory to china. The "new" 4228HD is a different design, it is poorly made and measured gain (per other testing sites) is much less on many channels than the old tried & true design. Avoid this junk antenna. | ||

| Summary: CM 4228 with CM 7778 Amp | ||
| I live about 35 miles north of Atlanta on I-85 in Buford. First tried mounting this antenna in my attic and did so for serveral months, but Channel 2 kept giving me some network lag so I moved the antenna outside with about a 20 yard Cable drop to the TV. Now i have full strength on all of the good digital channels, there are more available but here is a summary of the better ones: 2.1 2.2 5.1 8.1 11.1 17.1 36.1 46.1 69.1 Note that my house is a little down in a hole too! Great buy, get this antenna and make sure you buy the CM 7778 amp and you will get all of those local channels! J | ||

| Summary: Didn't work for me!!!!!!!!! | ||
| Installed this 4228hd antenna(poorly built)wouldn't pick up as many channels as my winegard 7210p and the one's it did pick up were weaker. The construction of the 4228 is very poor and where you hook up the coax it couldn't get any cheaper. It might work if you could see the tv towers from your location. I wonder if the good reviews are from channel master employes. | ||

| Summary: Does the Job | ||
| My mom was receiving 7 analog NY stations (2,4,5,7,9,11,13)quite well. I then hooked up an RCA DT800 digital to analog box to her existing outdoor antenna and only recived 6 digital stations (25.1, 25.2, 63.1, 63.2, 63.3, 63.4, 63.5). I then replaced her antenna with a CM4228 antenna and CM7777 amplifier. The results are astounding. She now gets 40 stations! All of the local major NY stations plus! | ||
