Add Your Review
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: Even Works in Living Room! |
| Bought this from amazon, When it came in, I hooked it up to my HDTV and Bang! Got five channels right off the bat. I have yet to mount this thing on the roof, but if it will do that well in the living room at street level, I know it will do even better on the roof. I also hooked it up an an FM radio in the house that gets horrible recpetion..Unilt now, When I hooked this antenna up, it was hitting numerous stations. I am impressed, a whole lot of bang for the buck! Highly reccomended. |

| Summary: Worked fine for 2 months, then stopped |
| I mounted this outside on the side of the roof, pointing away from the house towards Dallas signal. There is about 75 feet of coax to get to the TV with the preAMP mounted in the attic midway through the coax line. Worked fine upon installation getting NBC, FOX, PBS and a couple others perfectly. Not sure what happened to it after 2 months it stopped working and would not pick up any channels. I thought it may have moved slightly but I was unable to point and tune in channels. The preamplifier in the attic may have gone bad, but not sure how. I bought another antenna by Terrestrial DB2 and it is working, but not as well since I only get NBC now. The DB2 does not have a preamplifier. I have tried using the preamplifier from the Terk on the DB2 but there is no difference when turned on. I may buy another preamp but they are more expensive than the antenna. |

| Summary: an amazing device |
| I am about 25 miles north of Atlanta, and my old antenna would only draw in about half the stations. After trying several alternatives, I got the TERC HDTVo. It took some
experimenting with placement but my reception is now better
than I hoped for. I get every station in the area!
It is high in my attic. I dump the signal into a 4 way splitter which is amplified, no conflict with the antenna
amplifier.
Use RG6 coax, not longer than 75 feet if possible, but you can go 75 feet from antenna to the antenna amp, and another
75 feet to your splitter if necessary.
glad I found it, and the price is right. |

| Summary: Worked much better than advertised! |
| We live way out in the country (don\t even get cell service) and used an aerial mast antenna for several years until the wind beat it to death. After much looking I decided to try out the HDTVo due to reviews seen here and elsewhere. It installed as per advertised and I simply pointed it in the general direction that AntennaWeb suggested and bingo, it worked great. We have two sets of transmitters separated by 30 degrees and I was not too sure that one antenna would gather signals from each set of towers, but not only did it gather them all, we now even get stations that we were completely unaware of before.
The only issue I had was with the hardware. As usual for Chinese made stuff, their hardware pieces (in this case the lag screws) are metal in name only. Very soft steel and shallow bolt heads. I had to get \real\ lag bolts to attach the mast bracket.
Otherwise, top notch piece of equipment and I am VERY satisfied!

| Summary: Very Good for HDTV |
| I live in south of LA and north of San Diego. This antenna can pick up channels in both sides at the same time. If I aim to San Diego, I can pick up 46 channels. If I aim to LA, I can pick up 60 channels (Include some Korean, Vietnamese, Chinese Channels and many HD channels). It is amazing. This is the best one I have tried. My lacation is 39 miles from San Diego, and 86 miles from Los Angeles. I can watch some channels even in very cloudy and rain days. This DHTVo is a very good outdoor antenna. |
