| Summary: Good for Hartford, Bad for New Haven |
| UHF reception is excellent pointing to Hartford (22 miles). Cannot pick up anything from New Haven (27 miles). HD over UHF is clear and steady, HD over VHF (ABC)is unreliable. I going to experiment with a Terk 15db amp to see if it makes any difference for marginal signals (<60%). Good option for the price -- $35 at Crutchfield. |

| Summary: Very finicky on placement, but a decent performer |
| I was attempting to use this in an apartment complex with just reflected signals. My experience seems to be typical of most indoor antenna users......less than perfect.
In my case, the antenna was extremely sensitive to placement. Rotating the antenna 5 degrees made the difference between reception and no signal on UHF. Also, it was not possible to receive the full range of stations with one placement, so I had to keep repositioning it depending on what we wanted to watch.
The antenna did receive most UHF stations available in my area and the picture looked better than what I receive over cable.
I'd recommend trying the antenna out, but make sure you buy it from a store with a good return policy. You might need it. |

| Summary: Able to Get All Local HDTV channels in my basement |
| I paid $39.99 for this antenna at my local electronics store, and will admit that I was a little bit skeptical because I was going to use the antenna in my finished basement.
However, to my surprise, I hooked it up to my Mitsubishi WD-65831 and am able to get all of my local HD channels. They all come in crystal clear with no signal loss at all. According to antennaweb, most of my local stations are in the yellow band (with 2 of them in the "red" zone), but the antenna works great.

| Summary: skips great! |
| after reading reviews in circuitcity that it works good, i thought i'd give it a try.
i was able to lock unto a nascar race in one of the channels but then as soon as i moved out of my bed, it started skipping. all the other reception of other channels were awful.
it's worst than my next door neighbors wifi signal.
don't waste your time trying this antenna and do more research for outdoor setups. that's what i'm doing after trying this out! |
