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: Not bad I guess. | ||
| At first, I was very, very surprised. But then after a while, the signals cuts on and off at random. I have it rigged to a lamp to get a decent signal out of it. I'd rather have a little fuzzy signal than to get a signal that cuts out a bunch. Gonna try another model, maybe with a bit more powerful Amp. On the weaker signals it usually only acts up when I'm near the antennea | ||

| Summary: Works pretty well | ||
| I live on the west side of town near GA Tech in an old 1 story house. This worked great! I can get yellow, red, and blue zones. I can get the ION channel in Rome, GA as well as a couple stations in Athens. They all come through without having to change the antenna either and it's not in the attic. I had also bought the Philips MANT501 and it didn't get half the stuff that this one does! In fact the Philips couldn't get the main NBC station here. | ||

| Summary: a good antena, but shipping slow | ||
| Including shipping, it cost me 27 dollars, but I found an other antena almost same quality, only 20 dollars in target. Also I waited more than 1 week for the deliver. | ||

| Summary: waste of moola | ||
| Bought this at a local store for $29 (Aafes rips you off, i was just trying it out). Here on Ft Bragg atleast, I got no better reception with this than my regular bunny ears. The only channel I could receive with the plain ol' bunny ears is NBC. and with this with the dB gain all the way up the picture is just about the same, if not worse. and without the amplifier I got zip. Now, I will say this, I am on a regular TV that does not support ATSC signals (hdtv). Maybe with an appropriate hardware it may work better since a lot of stations have to broadcast in ATSC. but until then, gonna return this bad boy and stick with the good ol' bunny ears. | ||

| Summary: Bad antenna | ||
| Live in a apt. in NYC, can see Manhattan. Save your money, get a Terk antenna. The RCA was worst than my rabbit ears, even with amplification.
What amplification? Didn't see a difference, even with regular channels. Got it for my HDTV, what a waste. Wish I listened to the reviews. |
