| Summary: Pick-ups great signals in the Los Angeles area. |
| I originally bought the RCA-301 model from Best Buy for about $30 and returned it after a day.
I have a Dish Network 622 HD DVR and subscribe to the local channels. But Dish only provides the 4 major networks in HD (not The CW, UPN, etc..) so I decided to add a HD antenna. The RCA-301 only picked up two VHF channels at about 63-68 signal strength (I'm 25 miles from the main towers). After taking it back and upgrading to the RCA-501 I now get all local channel except NBC. I'm sure if I screwed with the antenna angle a little bit I would get that as well. So far the $20 upgrade was worth it, I'm getting signal strength between 78-88. |

| Summary: Don't waste your money |
| I got 3 channels with this antenna and 2 had bad signal. I then moved antenna outside and it picked up more channels but not much better signal. I live 18 miles from the stations and this is advertised to work better. I returned this bad antenna to the store. Buy the DB4 outdoor antenna or the DB2 and use inside. You will like these better. |

| Summary: Hit or Miss (Hit for me) |
| OTA HD is either a hit or miss. For me this was a huge hit. Great reception and I live about 20 - 35 miles away too. I highly reccomend if you live in Houston. Very fast shipping. A+++ |

| Summary: This is a terrible product |
| Plain and Simple: This product is terrible if you live in an apartment building in a city. I bought $5 rabbit ears that worked 100 times better. |
